    How to get into Periop Nursing

    WhoDatWhoDare replied to rnkv's topic in Operating Room

    I accepted a position as a Circulating Nurse for a Children's Hospital, and I start on the 14th. My story is that I'm a new grad and recently passed the NCLEX. Even though you aren't a new nurse,...

    I'm sick....

    WhoDatWhoDare replied to jlynn167's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Are the SATA questions considered higher level? It depends... and by that I mean it depends on who you ask. There is at least one contributing author here who states they are just alternative format...

    Online nursing program

    WhoDatWhoDare replied to Cw2001's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    From my understanding, and during my cohort that graduated in May, there was only 1 Houston hospital at that time. I am not privy to whether it will remain this way or if the program grows to include...

    Clinicals at UTA

    WhoDatWhoDare replied to carys's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    Yes, you definitely know your clinical group... The AP-BSN program is structured with the lectures being online, but your clinical is based in a hospital. During your first 2 semesters, you...

    Clinicals at UTA

    WhoDatWhoDare replied to carys's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    Looking back at my schedule for that semester (Jr1), we spent 2 days a week in the clinical location for 11 weeks... These were not 12 hour shifts during the Jr1 semester.

    Small rant....

    WhoDatWhoDare replied to LauraRN14's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    First of all, congratulations for passing! I hope the 48 hours after you tested didn't drive you crazy like it did me... I can't begin to understand how everyone who must wait WEEKS for their results...

    WhoDatWhoDare replied to Mindylane's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I graduated from UTA on May 10th and tested on May 30th. Passed after 75 questions. Took a Hurst live review a week before and I can tell you that it's definitely possible to test shortly after...

    How to ask or negotiate pay??

    WhoDatWhoDare replied to MrsKarlieee's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    As I understand your post, you told them what YOU wanted ($19/hr) and they agreed. However, now after seeing other staffing agency job postings for the same type of job, you would like to get paid...

    WhoDatWhoDare replied to nana930's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I can only share my experience with Hurst... That was the only review I took. I did the live review over 3 days and I took it about a week before my NCLEX. I think that they did a great job...

    Partner/Unpartnered?

    WhoDatWhoDare replied to carys's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    Carys... It's the facilities deal, not UTA's... there is at least one partnered hospital that will only allow the students to do their clinicals there if they are also employees... I believe it is...

    Partner/Unpartnered?

    WhoDatWhoDare replied to carys's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    In regards to being partnered, it has nothing to do with your marital status or significant other... it is in reference to working at a "Partnered" hospital. This is only applicable to the AP-BSN,...

    Taking NCLEX soon

    WhoDatWhoDare replied to punchin51799's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    You shouldn't base your possibility on success on how you did on the paid reviews... the majority of the people who take and pass the NCLEX don't even take those... The Hurst Review that I took didn't...
