    Hijab (headscarf) Nurses

    Faeriewand replied to skybmonkey's topic in General Nursing

    best way to improve resume as a new grad?

    Faeriewand replied to CVmursenary's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with the other posters. Get a job at a hospital! Externships are valuable and CNA is good too. But if they don't have a position open then CNA will do no good. But nursing experience will...

    Should I keep my LPN license active?

    Faeriewand replied to my.toys's topic in General Nursing

    I have both as well and they don't expire until 2011. I wasn't sure what I was going to do either when the time came. There are many job opportunities here and I know the BON lets you keep both.

    BLS and ACLS

    Faeriewand replied to lilnurseling's topic in General Nursing

    If you do an online component it will just make it more expensive. Just go to a class and they will teach you what you need to know.
