Sounds like you will have a wide variety of skills used. I can't see how that wouldn't transmit later to a great résumé! Go for it! P.s. I float between family practice and specialty that includes obgyn, cardiology, ortho, peds. I love it! You are no...

Depending on your area too pray they don't turn it over to the police for possession of a controlled substance. Unfortunately this may be a hard lesson learned.

Can you add specific skills you used during your clinically? Also dates your licensing was effective, bls dates, etc.

Not sure why this hasn't been mentioned before, but you must have a paragraph that parallels your work ethic with the organization you are applying for core values or mission statement. Also in your résumé you should list specific skills you are prof...

I also live and work in the Midwest and work in a walk in clinic from time to time. I float. Between family practice and specialty also I started at 22.10 as an rn with an ADN and no float premium. Find out what is normal pay in your area. It also mi...

If he wants an ma he can hire one for that wage and do his own injections. It is certainly NOT worth it! You will find another entry level rn position closer to home for more money.

Well? You are a year in. How do you like it?

I went to gateway in Kenosha.

I would recommend working at Aurora St Luke's. You will definitely learn a lot. I actually spent clinical time there in nursing school and enjoyed it a lot. The nurses were very nice and helpful and the CNAs were great as well. I was on several diffe...

How many docs? If more than 2 I would be wary. If just one it is completely normal. I love clinic life and in the right environment you might too! No nights, weekends, or holidays to fight to get off!

To you all still waiting... I have not known one person that the pop up was wrong! Congrats!

Isn't this a violation of dress code? Bring it up that way perhaps. It is a danger to patients too. Being a nurse she should know better. Or perhaps there is underlying mental illness..

Any luck on the job? I would not discount aurora. I have been happily employed there for over 2 years. Of course I am sure just like anywhere if you have a floor/dept with bad mgmt it wil be hell. Just try to choose wisely. And remember you are able ...

Wow! I am shocked all the bad juju about aurora. I have been happily employed there for over two years now, having come from one of their biggest competitors. I have not once seen or heard of any bad experiences like you all are describing! Our docto...

As a former all saints employee I can honestly say I would NEVER go back! Currently I am working for aurora and have several friends trying to make the switch as well...

I bet I had classes with most of you! Hope you all are doing well. -Amamda

I graduated from GTC last may. I think you have it right. I thankfully never had to repeat a class but know many who did.

Have you tried surrounding areas like Racine Kenosha oak creek?

Nurse mates have some nice leather slip ons.

Not what the OP is looking for but Walmart has cheap rubbery banded watches that are advertised as "safe for hand washing". They come in a variety of colors and have a big face with all 12 numbers. The batteries seem to last forever and they are unde...

It's a great stethoscope. I also have the litthman classic II S.E. I would never buy any other brand!

Check dress codes for possible places of employment in your area first. The large organization where I work no visible tattoos or piercings (other than up to 2ear piercings) are acceptable. Covering with band-aids is not acceptable either.

Also time management skills are a must for clinic nursing. Emphasize that on your resume!

All my life I worked in a clinic setting. Starting with reception role, med rec, call center, lead,etc. it was only natural to work as an RN in a clinic. When writing your resume taylor it to job duties of clinic nursing. Do you have experience with ...

Wow! I am shocked! Working for a large organization as an Lpn I made that to start out. As an RN now I make $23/hour. Never settle for less than $20/hour as an RN.
