   neurocheck2 replied to neurocheck2's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

   Thanks for the responses so far. I'm the type of person who stayed out of politics in the classroom or clinical setting. I never had a disruptive family but I did have one angry patient that I had...

3. Ohio help?!

   neurocheck2 replied to ERninja's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

   Ohio Board of Nursing is just slow. I graduated on May 3rd, got my ATT on June 21, took the NCLEX on July 5, and my license showed up on yesterday (July 9). I also turned in all my paperwork and...

   I just took mine and I had about 20 SATA questions out of 75. There always seemed to be one answer that was questionable on the SATA questions. On the regular questions there were two answers that...

5. Fulltime job and 2 NRSE classes

   neurocheck2 replied to neurocheck2's topic in Ohio University

   Wow, these courses sound scary. I got straight A's in my nursing classes but I have no problem memorizing concepts and terms. My biggest weakness is my writing. I barely got two C's in my...

   neurocheck2 replied to neurocheck2's topic in Ohio University

   Thanks for your responses. I took 308J during the summer for 5 weeks and I really struggled with that course. I can't imagine taking 2 writing courses in a 5 week period. My plan was to take one...

   neurocheck2 replied to megank5183's topic in General Nursing

   It doesn't matter what degree your going for as long as your doing your Pre-Med courses. Things might have changed now, but when I was in college back in the 1990's, my Pre-Med advisor told me to get...

10. Is 12.50/hr an average LPN wage for this area?

    neurocheck2 replied to grace.z's topic in Ohio Nursing

    These nursing homes are taking advantage of desperate nurses. I just got a job offer for $17 for a RN position at a LTC facility when I get my license. I would start at $14 as a LPN until I pass the...

11. No smoking.

    neurocheck2 replied to neurocheck2's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Yes, my wife smokes and I don't. It's probably best for me to talk directly to the hospital to see if this disqualifies me from employment or health insurance coverage for my wife. But if anybody...

    neurocheck2 posted a topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Not sure if I posted this in the right section but does anybody know if a hospital requires their employees to be non-smokers, is it alright if his/her spouse smokes? I don't smoke but I want to...

    neurocheck2 replied to prettymica's topic in LPN to RN

    I just finished my finals on Friday and got one more semester to go. So far I'm not too impressed with my LPN-RN program at OU. During this last semester they told us we weren't doing any...

15. LPN to RN and RN-BSN online (at the same time)

    neurocheck2 replied to neurocheck's topic in Ohio University

    I'm the OP (forgot allnurses password and the email account I used). Anyways, to clarify this further, I'm in Ohio University's LPN to RN program at the Chillicothe branch campus. They handed out a...
