Hailey, To answer your questions; 1. You will not need to take the ASVAB. The test is administered to only those who are looking to enlist in the service. You're going to apply with a college...
When you graduate from Corps school you'd be know as a quad-zero corpsman. They call it that because your code would be 0000. Without a C school you won't have a code. I believe the term is NEC,...
I'm afraid I can't give you any solid answers. I know these programs exist but not how to qualify or what their eligibility requirements are. In my case I didn't use either. I graduated and then...
Mslecia is correct however the term NROTC is usually used when training for the Navy. Another option is the Navy Nurse Candidate Program. A health care recruiter would be the first place to
OR is definetly something you could do. They're constantly trying to get RNs to sign up for OR training. Seems there's always a shortage, at least on the Navy side. PACU and cath lab would be...
Promotion on the reserve side is the same as it is on the active duty side only the two don't compete against each other. Meaning at promotion time reservists are compared to other reservists while...
I'm not a practitioner however I serve in the Navy reserves with two, both are FNPs. As far as benefits go they will be pretty much the same from one branch to another. National Guard may differ a bit...
njack, Here's a good place to start if your looking to compare apartments to the condos on Emerald Isle: Spinnakers Reach Long Term Rentals And as fate would have it, on the website you'll see Unit 11...

Greetings, I'm thinking of applying for a position that reads; RN Ambulatory - Oncology. I've worked ED, ICU, PACU, and of course good ol' Med/Surg. It looks like I meet their requirements and I was...
I read in one of the comments that ANG nursing was full. Currently in the Navy Nurse Corps reserve we're at 80% manned. Some food for though. Go Navy - Beat
I've been Navy Nurse Corps reserves for over 16 years and I love every minute of it. I've traveled the world everywhere from San Diego to Bahrain to Okinawa japan. I've also done a tour in Iraq and...
I've been Navy Nurse Corps for 17 years now, mostly reserves but I've done a lot of active duty time in the last 6 years. I don't recognize the term direct ascension. When I came into the reserves...
I've been in the medical field for 30 yeras, 18 as an RN, most of it with the Navy as a reservist on active duty. I have med/surg, trauma nurse, critical care, flight nurse and peri-operative...
I would highly recommend giving the military a try. I've spent 17 years as a Navy Nurse Corps officer both active duty and reserves. I love it. On another note, only the Navy requires a Bachelors...
I think a nurse recruiter would best be able to answer your questions. I'm prior enlisted and went Nurse Corps (Navy reserves) after earning my degree and passing the state boards (NCLEX). I would...
