My husband and I have a business together going on 4 years. I am also a new nurse, only 6 months in, and I work night shifts in the ED. Life is very busy but it is possible to do both! I work 3 shifts a week at the hospital and 2-3 days a week at our business. I'm still working out the kinks and figuring out a balance but we are making it work. Good luck to you!

Hey ladies. My name is KJ and I figured I'd jump into the discussion as well. I'm currently at the beginning of my Excelsior nursing studies. I have completed all pre-reqs and have taken the Health Safety exam. I'm currently working on studying for the Transitions to RN exam before I officially apply to the program. I live in Maine and would be willing to meet half-way or be a virtual study buddy. It's always nice to have someone to bounce questions off of, compare study habits with or even get some encouragement from! I have a lot on my plate right now: full time job, building a house (yes, we are physically building it!) and expecting my first child. Despite a busy schedule, I've managed to come up with a good timeline and study strategies and I plan to be done with the exams by early to mid-summer. Then, it will be onto the FCCA & CPNE! I also have a slightly different perspective, being a paramedic and not an LPN. If anyone wants a study buddy or even has a single question, feel free to contact me.
