THANK YOU so much for giving a quick run down of the interview! :)

Hello, I have just scheduled my interview. Its Nov 10th...when is yours?

Hello nurses! I will ask the opinion of my OB this week, but curious about what you all have seen in the workplace. I am due in a few days and personally have an allergy to erythromycin. Should the baby still get the eye prophylaxis... Even if I am ...

soooo...has anyone submitted the application yet ?

...its been pretty quiet here... How is the application process going guys? I'm waiting on my rec letters. Transcripts and certs are good to go...

Hi, It's in my plans, but since it's April, I have not yet done anything toward the application. I think I'll get everything together this summer. Laboat4, are you local to the Scranton area? Lets keep in touch through the process!

Thank you for your answer CVICURN22! :)

Perhaps, but it is very vague on the website. Copied from Scranton page: "In addition to the requirements previously listed for graduate study in nursing, nurse anesthesia applicants must also have a minimum of one year of recent critical care nurs...

Hi everyone! It has been a while here again with no posts. I plan on applying to Scranton this coming app period. Here is my deal: RN l/d for two years going on 3; at the same time started ICU last summer. I figure by time of app I will have 1.5 yrs ...

Hello fellow nurses, As the post is titled, I am an RN in L/D. Looking for encouragement and direction on the path to become a CRNA. I enjoy working L/D and I enjoy my schedule of 3 days a week max with 12hr shifts. I have the BSN, ACLS, PALS, ...

I get a whole 50cents more/ hr to be charge. Totally not worth it to me.

Just wondering how long you worked OB before being fully oriented. I have been in my job 8 months and we have 3 areas postpartum, nursery, and l&d. I was hired for l&d. I am currently oriented to charge in postpartum, I also can work nursery...

Wow when I have charge I have a full pt load (5) and charge lol no lack of bedside care here. I'd love to just be charge and have no pts often own

My hospital is awful with this. Babies need consecutively high finnigans scores to be shipped to another facility for treatment. We don't treat the babies here and the drs are not eager to send them out. Ie cs 3 days ago on suboxone baby screaming al...

Here is my current situation. RN w 8mo experience working night shift 5-6 days/week@8 hours 2300-0730. It can get exhausting. I'm marriend and never get to have nights with my husband on this schedule. I really like the job I have, I dont love it, bu...

Thanks healthstar, probably a good idea - ill let these lips (avatar) do the talking for now lol

I have been working now for 8 months ....I got no orientation to charge -buuut I became a charge nurse with 5 months of experience ...due to phsically needing a body of an RN for the position rt firings and retirements and ppl quitting ...yay for me ...

I have been working in OB for 8 months now. My first job. The dream job of many. I want to stay a full year. I don't want to complain as this is probably one of the least sucky areas to work in at a hospital but I have come to realize that bedside nu...

Can someone please give a brief rundown of the duties of an RN in LTC. I always see want ads in the paper for supervisors. I've only ever worked in a hospital as an RN. It's pulling my interest, but I also have no clue what I'd be getting into. Any t...

Thanks mermaid. From my experiences (I'm in pa) I hear that aids and lpns work their butts off passing meds, treatments, and adls. Rns are there to supervise/ take the fall if smth bad happens/ admission assessments/ other paperwork ...

Never saw the written policy but some say that we are to wear the gowns when bathing/feeding. I only know one nurse that does. We can wear long sleeves / jackets. In fact when I'm in nursery I make sure to also that baby is swaddled well and in a hat...
