Hi, just thought I would say Hello! I live about an hour from UTMC. I work for Covenant Health. It's funny that you are thinking of moving to TN, and I am moving back to FL in the fall if all works out. UTMC is only hiring BSN, and making many of the...

Hi! I will be attending MTSU Family Nurse Practitioner I am PRN, but work 24+ a week in the ER Full time student I am excited and nervous. It has been 7 years since I graduated. Plus I now have 2 kids where in my BSN program I didn't have any. Will ...

I will be attending MTSU. I received my M# and registered for Adv Patho, Pharm, and Health Assess. What are you taking in the Fall?

I wanted an online program instate so I could keep costs down. I looked into Graceland as well. I hope I can find some people who are going to be in the RODP classes with me. Have you decided where you are going? Have you done the RODP application?

I start Fall and am wondering how the classes are done as well. Do we log onto RODP's website? They have a link on their website. Hope you can figure it out soon. Let me know if you figure it out.

Is this a Regents program? I will be starting in Fall and wondering how it is set up for classes and coursework.

I moved from Savannah 4 years ago and would move back in a hearbeat. There are plenty of great places to live in Savannah without moving further out and increasing your commute. I lived in a better part of Georgetown that has a good school. My family...

Are you trying to start Fall 2012? My home school is MTSU.

Have you heard from MTSU regarding the FNP program? I have been accepted and start Fall 2012. I would love to know a few people who will be doing the same program. I just registered for classes. Thanks!

Hi, I live outside Knoxville, and I haven't heard of new grads having problems finding jobs. There are quite a few hospitals in and around Knoxville to choose from. UT Medical Center is in Knoxville, too. I work with a nurse who graduated from UT. Al...

There are a few schools that don't require you to have any bedside experience before you start NP school. I believe Vanderbilt is one. I work in the ER, and we have 2 NP's who had no experience when they started NP school, went right through both. I ...

I like Jacksonville personally. I recently moved from Savannah, so not too far away. Plenty of jobs, and they have a couple of hospitals there. There are some nice cities close by to visit when you are off. Good luck!

So arg928, did you accept the position with the private facility? I start at one in 2 weeks, so I am wondering how it is going to go. Would love to hear any experiences at private facilities. Thanks.

I am so excited to start 12/26! I am going to miss the ER, but I know I will learn a lot at this place. I love the idea of helping women recover and move on with their lives. I am a little apprehensive of leaving the ER so hopefully that will decrea...

I have accepted the job, which is Sat-Mon, 7a-7p. Even working every weekend, it seems like a great schedule. I am exhausted after working 12 hours in the ER, and not really getting to know the patients. I will stay PRN in the ER, to keep my skills u...

I have been looking at a private facility, where there are nurses there 24/7, therapists, and MD's available 24/7. The residents want to be there, and want the help. I am an ER nurse, so this would be something new for me. We deal with the psychiatri...

Where is the facility located, if you don't mind me asking? I have been interested in making the change to this area of nursing. Did you take the job? If so, how do you like it? There are a few facilities located around where I live. Thanks, Crystal

Hi. I work at a Covenant Facility in Sevierville, right outside of Knoxville. I love working with them because they own at least 5 or more hospitals in and around Knoxville. This means that you can transfer between facilities after a year and not lo...

I was pregnant with my first child and 30 years old. I went to the hospital, they checked me and said I was 3-4 cm with contractions every 4 minutes so they placed me in the room, started the IV and placed me on the monitor. They let me get up to go...

Has anyone applied to Union University and if so, has anyone interviewed with them? How was it? Do you know if you receive a letter even if you don't get an interview? Thanks. Crystal

Still nothing here. Really nervous.

Have you guys applied to other schools? I am getting my application ready for a few others. Hoping for the best, expecting the worst.

I live in TN right now, moved up a year ago. So where else have you guys applied to? I hope the letters come soon, so we can stop worrying. Of course, if it's bad then they can keep it. So will you guys be moving with families if you get accepted? C...

Thanks for the answers. Hoping for the best!
