  1. I know no one here will be able to "predict" the outcome of my interview, but it was a very strange experience that I never encountered before. Looking for some feedback... A while ago I was browsing a local hospital's job boards and came across a po...
  2. Strange interview... Input requested

    Recently heard from HR that I was offered the position!
  3. Strange interview... Input requested

    Well, I recently heard that called my current supervisor for a reference check, so hopefully that's a good sign!
  4. Florida Hospital New Grad Program OCT 2014

    I just was called for one interview this afternoon, but it's not in my top-choice facility. I'm really hoping to hear from the second GN position they forwarded my app to soon, since that's more of my ideal location.
  5. Florida Hospital New Grad Program OCT 2014

    Basically adult ICUs and a PCU.
  6. Florida Hospital New Grad Program OCT 2014

    I was called by HR yesterday who basically did a phone screening and said they would pass my app to the recruiter to start matching with open positions. Today it says under initial review, but on my job page they put two GN jobs in my area of interes...
  7. Florida Hospital New Grad Program OCT 2014

    Do the references need to be completed before we are called for an interview, or just before they can extend an offer?
  8. UF BSN-DNP 2014

    Check the email you provided to the UF CON. An updated orientation schedule and details were sent a few days ago.
  9. UF BSN-DNP 2014

    Same. Also not seeing the fb group
  10. UF BSN-DNP 2014

    Is anyone on here doing Adult/Gero Primary Care part time ?
  11. UF BSN-DNP 2014

    My letter came today. Accepted!
  12. UF BSN-DNP 2014

    Nothing here. I think they said their goal was to get some program's letters out of the office by yesterday or Monday? Can't remember exactly.
  13. UF BSN-DNP 2014

    Yeah, it will be mail. That's what the college said.
  14. UF BSN-DNP 2014

    Same...
  15. UF BSN-DNP 2014

    Did they say that we will get letters by the end of the month or just have decisions made by then?
  16. UF BSN-DNP 2014

    So we're thinking letters instead of email now?
  17. UF BSN-DNP 2014

    Yeah but when I applied they said they didn't know if they were going to switch back to postal mail because there were issues with it going to the spam folder and stuff with email
  18. UF BSN-DNP 2014

    Do we know if it is email or regular mail?
  19. Burn Unit RN Interview

    I'm going to be interviewing for a position as an RN in Burn ICU (8 bed unit) that is adjacent to the hospital's outpatient burn clinic. I'm interested in working with patients with complex, compromised integumentary systems, and thought burn nursing...
  20. Burn Unit RN Interview

    Thank you for the thorough reply. My burn center is ABA approved, and is the only dedicated BICU in the region (there are only 2, maybe 3 other burn centers in the state). I would imagine that hemodynamics and infection control are major priorities. ...
  21. I learned on the two-step method where you palpate the radial pulse before you auscultate anything to get an estimate of the systolic: Put on cuff, find radial, inflate cuff and note where the pulse disappears and reappears on deflation (should be th...
  22. WOC Nurses with advanced degrees

    Just looking for some insight into advanced degrees and the WOC specialty. If a BSN trained RN gets board certified in these areas, then chooses to get a graduate-level education, how would this impact career advancement and job prospects? I'm just ...
  23. WOC Nurses with advanced degrees

    That does help thanks! Nursing is a second career for me so I'm still learning these types of things. Continence always seemed to be a bit of an outlier to me, I'm most interest in wound and ostomy. Sent from my iPhone using allnurses.com
  24. WOC Nurses with advanced degrees

    That's interesting to hear. I actually didn't know much about the consensus model until you mentioned it. One more question - do RNs in this specialty generally become board certified in multiple areas (W, O, and/or C) to become more diverse/marketab...
  25. WOC Nurses with advanced degrees

    Thank you for the input. I actually don't know much about the CNS, besides that being the degree many Clinical Leaders have at my hospital. Everyone seems to be pushing the NP, whether it be at the Master's or DNP level. Sent from my iPhone using a...
