Hello, My name is Stephanie and I am currently a student at Washington State University. I will be graduating in December and have started to apply for jobs at the Mayo Clinic. I would love to talk to anyone who currently works there just for gener...

I did it! I applied to the Nurse residency Program at Children's Hospital Colorado! Now I get to wait. I won't hear if I got an interview until Dec 21st, so if the world doesn't end I will come back and let you know what happened. I asked for the...

Hello, I'm in my last semester of the BSN program at Washington State University and looking at places I would like to work. I am considering applying to Children's Nurse Residency Program when they open up applications in a week or so. Any nurses w...

I took the NCLEX in Washington and have my license there. Neither MN or WA are compact states sadly but the process to transfer is pretty straight forward you pay the fee and fill out the application and then once the new state receives all the infor...

I am in my final semester of nursing school and was thrilled to find out I have been placed in a PICU for my Senior Practicum. Any advice, thoughts, stories to share with the newbie? Steph

First I want to make it perfectly clear that I am very happy for everyone that got an interview and wish you the very best of luck in being offered a job. Second: Waaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I didn't get an interview and I'...

I was kind of wondering the same thing. I haven't received an email saying I wasn't accepted yet and my application is still active on the website. So there may still be hope. Has anyone gotten a call saying they got an interview?

Well I did not get a phone call and it's 1842 Denver time . Congrats to everyone who did get an interview though and good luck!!!!

Thank you! praying I get a phone call then

GGBRN Have you heard anything yet from CHC??

I got the email but my app status online still says screen. Hard to do I know but try and relax until the 21st deep breaths and don't obsessively check your app status 20 times a day. (((HUGS))) You can do this!!!! Which areas did you choice? Ma...

Thanks for the Info I appreciate it!

I got an email saying my application had been routed to a hiring manager...I think they do a mass email of all people selected for an interview on the 21st

I agree with dudette10 if they are waking up requesting pain meds and their v/s are stable I would go ahead and give them what the Doctor had ordered them for pain

I think the hiring freeze is over. They have started posting openings for RN's again. Hopefully I'll get an interview soon

Hey cool! I placed in the top 10 and I didn't even know there was a contest going on. Just naturally chatty I guess :)

Everything I have seen says that if you are getting 65-75% of the practice questions right you have a 90-95% chance to pass the NCLEX the first time. With the actual test they don't really calculate a percentage there is just a passing line and if y...

Our Professional Development teacher arranged for us to be able to take ATI's NCLEX predictor test. 180 questions and then it tells you what your percentage chance is to pass the NCLEX the first time based on your score. I actually did really well. ...

Thank you for sharing (((HUGS)))

Wonderful post...I shamefully admit that I have on occasion allowed my temper to get the better of me and made a rude comment on a forum. I try very hard not to and to simply move onto another post if I cannot state my opinion in a respectful manner...

As the previous posters stated she is an adult and in pain she requested the PRN's and being sleepy is a side effect. you can talk to both the patient and her husband about possible non-drug interventions for pain such as heat, or distraction but if...

Thank you for sharing! Great Read. I knew I wanted to be a nurse from the time I was 6 and watched a documentary that followed a patient through the whole process having a triple bypass surgery. However I am 36 and will probably be 37 by the time ...
