  1. New Grad Salary??

    MichiganRN13 replied to akilah530's topic in Georgia Nursing

    This probably won't help you as I am in Michigan but just to get an idea of ranges around the country I started off at 26.50 with a small shift differential. This was at a small hospital, that seems...

  3. Would you consider a company car a HIPAA violation

    MichiganRN13 replied to HHN2472's topic in Home Health

    I agree with 84RN, the car sitting in the driveway in and of itself would not be a HIPAA violation. If that was the case wouldn't that be true of an ambulance parked there on a call to that home? As...

  4. Training/Orientation

    MichiganRN13 replied to malenurse122879's topic in Home Health

    I have just had one interview with one company but I was told that I will have (if hired) 6-8 weeks of orientation. I can not say for sure that it will play out that way but this seems like a very...

  7. Travel nursing

    MichiganRN13 replied to Nursestd's topic in General Nursing

    A good site I found was highway hypodermics. They have a list of different travel nursing companies and are rated for the services they provide. I can tell you that they usually require at least one...

  11. Failing....? Your school's policy?

    MichiganRN13 replied to KJoRN81's topic in General Students

    Each class you have to achieve an 84% in order to move on. Clinicals are pass/fail. You can repeat once and then your out the next time. Drug calculation quiz before terms 3,4,5 that you have to pass...

  12. How long was your orientation?

    MichiganRN13 replied to bh93's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

  13. Baker College, Owosso

    MichiganRN13 replied to avanee01's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I am a recent graduate from Baker and I think that if your talking about 10-15 hours per week then you should be fine. There are times it can be extremely rigorous but as long as you don't put things...

  15. RN salary 2013 California, Ohio and MI

    MichiganRN13 replied to dallas99's topic in General Nursing

    I'm a new grad in Michigan but I haven't started working yet, from everything I have heard the starting pay for new grads in the Lansing area is around 26-27/hr not counting shift differentials. I...

  16. Test taking strategies - nursing school is completely different!

    MichiganRN13 replied to ebinbrooklyn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Check out Kaplan nursing and the programs they offer if your not familiar with it. I think I know the type of questions you are talking about and Kaplan could be a big help. My best advice is (I'm not...

  17. What is your school's grading scale like?

    MichiganRN13 replied to vc01ca's topic in General Students

    94-100=A 91-93=A- 89-90=B+ 87-88=B 84-86=B- I could keep going on down to an F but anything below an 84% is basically failing. You can have a low grade here and there on assignments and quizzes and...

  18. anyone actually graduate and employed from Baker College

    MichiganRN13 replied to remigirl222's topic in General Nursing

    I realize that many of these posts are pretty old but I felt like I had to respond to some of the information being said on here. I just graduated from the nursing program from Baker in Owosso and it...

  19. Baker College of Allen Park Michigan... ADVICE!

    MichiganRN13 replied to Sackery-Binx's topic in School, College Programs

    I agree with everything you just said but as a recent graduate of the nursing program I can tell you there will be plenty more group projects. Usually they aren't worth that much of the overall grade...

  20. Searching for Fall 2013 Baker College Owosso applicants

    MichiganRN13 replied to ksinnott's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Thank you. My best advice is to make time for yourself to unwind but try to stay on top of things. If you procrastinate like I do it can be very overwhelming at times but I made it so you can too....

  21. Searching for Fall 2013 Baker College Owosso applicants

    MichiganRN13 replied to ksinnott's topic in Michigan Nursing

    That sounds right. Our total points were out of 100 also but I couldn't tell you what my final total was to get in the program as I never found out. I only knew my Kaplan score but when I got in I...

  22. Searching for Fall 2013 Baker College Owosso applicants

    MichiganRN13 replied to ksinnott's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I just graduated from Baker in Owosso and unless they changed the Kaplan those scores seem high. As you will see once your in and are taking Kaplan tests all the time they generally are 60-70. As for...

    Hello, I am currently a nursing student about 20 school weeks from graduation and was hoping to get some information on correctional nursing. I have read many threads on the topic and am weighing the...

    MichiganRN13 replied to MichiganRN13's topic in Correctional
