I am wondering if any Travel Nurses (or other nurses) have seen any hospitals that allow travel nurses to park their RVs in a hospital lot and/or a RV lot intended for patients? Especially @NedRN as you have been around the block a few times. This...

Thanks @NedRN That Mammoth situation sounds great. That's a great idea about looking for someone who wants a temporary parking/tenant on the property. I appreciate the help. Anyone else have ideas?

Mainly thinking of rural hospitals - I know UCSF Hospital is not a likely candidate.

@Jason Warhurst There's also this thread.

Thank you!

Do you know if the classes are synchronic (everyone on line for the class at the same time) or if the classes are asynchronic (no need to be online at the same time)? Wondering for staff or travel job if admitted. And thank you for your help.

So their school year most likely would start May 2022 for the current application pool?

Does anyone know when the school year starts for those applying now?

Congratulations! I love success stories. You deserve all of your rewards and happiness. Are you going to stay there or go to Alaska?

I’m late replying but I agree that you don’t need an MBA. I have one but you don’t need one to run your business. There’s a great book you should read. Nurse practitioner’s business and legal guide. By Carolyn Buppert. 7th edition. It’s expensive but...

That's a really negative slur and misogynist to boot. I'm sure that most NP students are not soccer moms. Rather they are working professional RNs - MALE OR FEMALE - that want to support their families, contribute to their medical institutions, car...

The Vanderbilt nurse was arrested today for reckless homicide and patient abuse.

Gonzaga's BSN nursing programs are very well respected in the Northwest as is their CRNA. I'm sure that the NP programs have a similar good reputation. For the NP program, I believe that you have to live in the NW I think because they find clinicals...

Yes, an MSN is more than a BSN. I can't imagine any school not accepting an MSN, which is higher-than BSN.

Ways to stand out: More than 1 year minimum experience, CCRN, perhaps experience as a preceptor or charge nurse or governance committees. The most likely way to mitigate the low GPA would be a high GRE score - higher than the school's average admit...

PediatricCTICURN - Do you have any private debt or is it all government guaranteed? You can check, but most of the government debt will go into forbearance while you're in school but the private debt won't. If I were you, I would work max overtime,...

If you have a your RN/BSN, then CRNA is the way to go. If you don't already have your RN, then Certified Anesthesiology Assistant (CAA or AA) may be more direct and quicker because you don't need the RN for admittance nor do you need ICU experience ...

A couple of ideas. I'm sure your reasons for travelling are good. Have you tried to explain that to your family? That it's the combination of good pay, good conditions and a good career for a young, unmarried, childfree person? Tell them your goal...

No, I didn't apply but know people who did and I visit Nashville a lot.

For shift differential, it's $2/hr for weekends and $4 an hour for nights. So working overnight on Saturday is $6/hour above base. Overtime is paid on holidays if worked and overtime for more than 40 hours a week. ED (and perhaps ICU) get a $1/hou...

Nashville hotels are quite expensive. The hostel in Nashville is pretty good (even has private rooms which could be cheaper than a hotel). It is located near Vanderbilt and Music Row so an Uber or taxi wouldn't be too expensive.

This is last year's thread. You might want to look at the 2018 thread here: https://allnurses.com/nursing-job-hunt/vanderbilt-nurse-residency-1104912-page14.html

I would email them and ask. They're very helpful.

I don't think it's possible to determine how long it will take. If you're determined, a step-by-step process will get you there. 1) College general ed requirements and nursing pre-requisite classes 2) RN or BSN program 3) Graduate and take NCLEX ...

Because of competition for spots and high demand, California is hard on prospective nurses. I hope your next post is in an easier state. Good luck on your journey.
