  1. Timeline for endorsing RN license to CA

    Were you notified that your fingerprints were not accepted? I don't have time to keep messing with this process.
  2. Timeline for endorsing RN license to CA

    So I called today and one of the things they're waiting on is for my fingerprint card results to come back. Does anyone have a number I can call to get this situation figured out? Also, it was my understanding that the processing times online refer t...
  3. Timeline for endorsing RN license to CA

    I applied for my license 4/1 and I don't have anything that says "pending." What am I doing wrong?
  4. Timeline for endorsing RN license to CA

    Did your "missing education history" show up as soon as your name came up on BreEZe?
  5. Timeline for endorsing RN license to CA

    So my application was received 4/1, and my check cashed 5/9. How soon should my stuff be available to see on BreEZe? Also, should I be looking for updates under "License Notification Subscriptions?" I'm not exactly sure how BreEZe works.
  6. Hi all, I'm a nurse from Texas that is moving to San Diego in August, so I'm completely unfamiliar with the area and hospital systems. I was looking at a map and saw that Sharp Mary Birch Women's and Rady Children's hospital are really close together...
  7. Timeline for endorsing RN license to CA

    So I was just looking at processing times online (it looks like it's taking even longer and longer to get a temporary license), and I saw that you can now apply for Licensure by Endorsement online! I wish they had gotten this up before I submitted my...
  8. Rady Children's & Sharp (San Diego)

    Also, if you had the chance to choose where to work in terms of employee satisfaction, would you choose Sharp Mary Birch, Rady's or UCSD?
  9. Rady Children's & Sharp (San Diego)

    Thank you! One more question, where do the NICI babies that transfer to Rady's come from?
  10. Kaplan Secure Predictors

    My school is giving the option of taking the two Kaplan Secure Predictor exams. Does anyone know how many questions are on each?
  11. St. David's Austin Graduate Nurse Positions

    Is this for Downtown/Main or NAMC?
  12. St. David's Austin Graduate Nurse Positions

    I looked at some of the listings, and didn't see anything about needing 1-2 years of experience. Most of what I saw is that it was preferred that applicants have some experience as a PCT. As long as it says "Graduate Registered Nurse" in the job titl...
  13. UMHB Nurses!

    I graduated from UMHB two years ago! I'm happy to answer any questions as well. The program is as time consuming as you make it. You typically have classes two days, and clinical another one or two days, depending on which semester you're in. I was...
  14. california license by endorsement

    Hi! So I'm getting really antsy. I sent a request for the fingerprint cards on 2/22, and requested again after two weeks when they still hadn't come in. I've been waiting over a month now - would you guys recommend calling the BON to see what the hol...
  15. Timeline for endorsing RN license to CA

    Okay, I am seeking some advice. My plan is to move to California late July/early August and hopefully have a job secured that will start around that time. I have already submitted all my transcripts, but I am still waiting for my fingerprint card th...

    Oh, good to know. Thank you!
  17. Timeline for endorsing RN license to CA

    How can you see the status of your application? I'm still waiting for my fingerprint card to arrive that I requested almost a month ago.
  18. Graduate Nurse St. David's

    (Sorry if this posts twice, my computer is acting funky.) So yes, you will be taking classes as well as orienting to the unit you have been hired. During this time, you will receive the stipend pay. Once your residency is over (I believe it's 12 week...
  19. Graduate Nurse St. David's

    You receive stipend pay (1200) while you are on orientation. Once you are off, you get the GN rate.
  20. TX App and two first names

    Hey all! I could really use some help. I am trying to fill out the application for the NCLEX-RN online. Under "Name Information," it states that "Punctuation and/or spaces are not accepted for the following three name fields." Well, my first legal n...
  21. Car seat test

    Are you asking about the actual test, or when baby is discharged and put in the car? My unit does a 90 minute study as well that the baby must pass before being discharged. We teach parents how to safely put baby in, adjust straps, and secure them. O...
  22. I just accepted my dream position

    Congratulations! As far as advice, before my residency started, I got in contact with my unit's educator and asked her what I could do to best prepare for being on the unit and transitioning from being a student to a nurse. Her honest response was to...
  23. is nicu stressful?

    I've been working in a level 3 NICU for a little over 7 months now, right out of nursing school, and it can be very stressful! But honestly, I could not see myself doing anything else. Like someone else said above, sometimes it can be extremely hecti...
  24. Kaplan Secure Predictors

    Honestly, I would not review. Take the exam and see what areas you score lowest in so you can focus on those when you study for the NCLEX.
  25. Labs/Blood Gases

    I would love a copy as well, please!
