    CP2013 replied to canoehead's topic in Emergency

    Hey. That is real. And it is scary. They hang out on my porch and I swear it feels like I'm having a mini AMI every time they jump on me as I go in the house. Never made it to the ED, but have had to...

    CP2013 replied to jrutan's topic in Flight, Surface Transport

    Florida was to do away with the challenge in 2013, but has extended it to 2014 now. So I'm trying to get in before the changes are

  9. Interested in an RN to Medic Bridge Program

    CP2013 replied to jrutan's topic in Flight, Surface Transport

    In Florida, RNs are able to challenge the EMT-P exam if they already hold an EMT-B. This is the route I am going for now. I am a new grad BSN, but I do want to pursue flight nursing later in my...

  13. NCLEX-RN in 3 days!

    CP2013 replied to CP2013's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Thank you. Trying not to panic. Trying to relax my mind instead of overworking it. Taking a nap, lots of salmon, vitamin C, and green leafy veggies. Trying to continue healthy eating, no bad carbs...

    CP2013 replied to CP2013's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

  15. What specialty do you want and not want to work in?

    CP2013 replied to guiltysins's topic in General Students

    Flight nursing is a competitive speciality that requires YEARS of experience (often more than 7 years in ED and/or ICU). Also, in the ED, there's a fabulous tool called an IO device. When it works,...

  17. Backgrouncheck question

    CP2013 replied to keke1982's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    CP2013 replied to CP2013's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    So would it be better for me to list them as such: ACLS, expires 03/2015 BLS, expires 03/2015 PALS, expires 03/2015 Or would "current through 03/2015" be better? I'm trying to keep my resume from...
