  1. Hobbies off duty as a Nurse?

    I like to go salsa dancing, hiking, gym, try to beat everyone in my fitbit challenge (kidding), and travel internationally once a year.
  2. Do Nurses Earn Big Money? You Decide.

    It may be "big money" for those who have tax write offs, such as a home for example. I can't look at the breakdown of my paystub without feeling a little helpless. Wishing that i hadn't spent so much on an RN education.
  3. My preceptor is everything they taught us NOT to be...

    I a new grad from an excellent, small hospital based program...Not because your school prepared their students well, and your preceptor stated that she didn't learn anything in school means that it's the end of it. Nursing school is preparatory. You...
  4. Scrubs Make Me Crazy (long rant)

    "Urbane. Also a heart-breaker, this one. They get the closest to 'modern' fit of all brands I've tried thus far. Unfortunately, they're clearly designed by non-medical professionals and thus have no pockets. My heart breaks when I find awesom...
  5. Updates on the panel interview? were you accepted into the program? How do you like working there? I am going to apply to the program myself and would like some tips.
  6. BRN says I have convictions but I don't!!

    Hi folks. So sorry for the late response. My director reviewed what and I sent to the BRN and she suggested the following: Amend traffic accidents to specify that there wasn't a police report, that it didn't result in any disciplinary action or point...
  7. Ok, I am freaking out. I received a letter from the BRN-CA that stated the following "due to your disclosure of previous discipline or conviction, your application will require additional processing time". WHAT!!?!? I do not have prior convictions no...
  8. Problem solved!
  9. Oh goodness, I didn't even notice. Thank you for shedding light on that. I will get right on that. No wonder there were difficulties
  10. OH!!! I asked ----------- about immunizations and she said that we did need this. I wasn't specific, but I assume it's things like: TB testing, hepatitis immunizations, tetanus shots, possibly a flu shot. I'm sure i'm forgetting something but that's...
  11. About the group. #1. It is called Stanislaus ASBSN Cohort #2. Type this into the search bar. #2. Introduce yourself and share any information that wasn't on this thread.
  12. Hi. It's called "Sanislaus ASBSN Cohort #2". I just typed it in and it popped up. it's open group so i'm not sure what is going on.
  13. 1. Where is everyone purchasing their insurance. 2. If anyone is interested in joining, I started a facebook group.The name is: Sanislaus ASBSN Cohort #2. Hopefully this will be easier for communication purposes. 3. I spoketo "Z" today and we need to...
  14. Hello Everyone, this question is off topic but i'll ask anyway. Does anyone have plans to continue nursing career after the RN portion or is this it? Are there any future MSN candidates in this thread?
  15. I am working on the application and can't find any information about the major code / code matrix?? (page 6, section G, #29a).
  16. CPR? What? I received no such email. I hope that i'm not the only one out of the loop. Eek
  17. I will also be making the 1 hour commute. Luckily for you, you'll be going in the direction opposite of traffic.
  18. The schedule to which you refer is for Cohort #1. Additionally, the classes that were "originating from Sacramento" were actually televised classes. Luckily for cohort #2, all classes will be taught at the Stockton campus.
  19. The last time I spoke to *******he said that they were going to change the start date and that the program was going to start in early November! I am hoping that I mis-heard and that they'll start in late November because i'm finishing up a few class...

  23. I JUST GOT MY ACCEPTANCE PHONE CALL!!! wooot wooottt
  24. The thing about the depositing of the check is that regardless of whether or not a student we accepted into the program, they're still taking your money! From previous thread replies, it also seems as though we'll get a response and then we'll start...
  25. OMG..So nervous!!!
