Op did you find your answer? Did you report to the BON?

Hi, everyone, I have a ? regarding WGU's competency units. I want to get an idea of how many cu's students have earned in the rn-bsn program for WGU in 1 term. I know of course some students are different-depending on time they have- and I know the m...

Hello, I just wanted to know if someone could give me advice on how to get into school nursing? When I first graduated, it was easier to do so, but now everyone wants peds experience. I want thinking of doing home care as a peds nurse first since I c...

Before nursing I worked @ Wendy's for a really long time and went to school for Medical Assisting. I then worked as a Medical Assistant for about 2 years in a fairly large doctor's office while planning on going back to school for the LPN and then RN...

are you guys new school nurses, or do you experience in peds already? Just curious. I would like to be a school nurse but here everyone wants experience.

Thankyou. I didn't think of checking what the board requirements were.

Hello, I have been working as a nurse for a little over a year with my ADN. I just got my BSN and started applying at hospitals again. I worked @ 1 palliative care acute hospital on 8 hr days. I just found out I'm pregnant and since I just started ap...

Thank guys!

Thank you. Were you also new to nights or were most of the nurses new to nights?

Thanx lol. Yes I sorry for the confusion I meant working as a school nurse. Done with nursing school and whanted to know if anyone can give insight on how to land a job as a school nurse with no peds experience of if people are seeing that those are ...

I started my BSN 2 mths after I passed the NCLEX. I was already looking for jobs but didn't get one until 1 mth after I started theBSN. My program was completely online so I didnt have to travel, but it still took up time. Anyways, RN-BSN is nowhere ...

I was an LPN before an RN, and an MA. In both jobs I worked in doctor's offices, so even though I only had my ADN-this helped me. I got an offer a few months after my boards-one in an OB/GYN practice. I turned it down and worked with patients whom we...

Hello, I graduated last year and have experience in acute palliative care and post op eye surgery. Both jobs were a little far but no traffic due to the times I had to report for work. I now have 2 offers- both in offices. One is ob/gyn temp-perm but...

Hello, I noticed this post is from June o this year. I, too, am a new grad at a palliative care hospital. Felt the same way with my preceptor. Just wanted to see how things are going for you now-did you change jobs, or are you still there and are mak...

Hi, I read your post regarding the new job and all. So, after 1 yr of hospital experience, do you think you will ever go back? Do you think it was worth it to stick it out for 1 yr?

Hello everyone. First off, thank you for reading my post and thank you for any replies that you give. I'm graduated 12/13, took NCLEX 2/14. I'm in my second RN job-I left the first one for this because it's a hospital and pays more, also I'll obvious...

Thank you again, to everyone. You all had great ideas and I appreciate all feedback.

Really? How many times did I say she showed me how to an admission? We haven't even done one yet because if they come after a certain time we don't do the whole admission. The admission nurse does them. I will be following her next week though. And f...

I also apologize for calling this "bullying." I guess it's more I feel uncomfortable being new and feeling like I can't ask questions without being reprimanded in front of everyone. I'm guessing most of you know how that feels from your first times w...

Thankyou for all of your advice. Yes, I was an LPN-in a dr's office(srry I didn't make that clear.) So, no, I have no experience with med pass, foleys, IV'S, suctioning, etc. I have given injections, neb tx's, blah, blah-nothing serious. And the prec...

Hi, guys, my story is a little different with jobs. I am basically a new grad(had one job with developmentally challenged for about 1 mth, that I quit due to better offers), I have my ADN and I am enrolled in a RN-BSN. Now I have back issues-pain, ch...

Hi everyone, I graduated with my ADN 12/13. Can't find a hospital job for the life of me. Anyways, I got offered a job at a home for disabilities where will oversee non-nursing staff, but I won't perform any nursing skills. My orientation starts Mon...

Hi, for the people that finished WGU, how many cu's did you do in each term, on average, and about how many hrs did you study per wk? I'm looking into WGU and GCU. wgu sounds more appealing, but I still don't know what I have to take for the RN-BSN p...

feartherzRN, how long did it take you to finish the program? 1 term?

Thankyou for replying. I honestly was under the impression that it was 6 cu's per term for some reason. anyways how much time did you spend on average studying for the 50 cu's? and how many credits did you transfer over from your adn program or other...
