Hi! I am an RN and my mother a CNA. She approached me with idea of opening an ALF out of her home (3b/2bath). We live in Florida and from the area we live average went is around 2k-5k a room. She would care for the patient and I would be the administrator essentially. we would hire 1 CNA to care for the patient at night. Our goal would be to get licensed after obtaining 3 patients and then get a larger home and repeat. This seems like a no-brainer for nurses however i fear that this would business would take an immense amount of hours to manage and keep vacancy down. I do not have any reference for this business venture and hoping to hear some feedback on this journey Thank you

Hi! I am asking this for a friend who is an LPN graduate close too 10 years ago, she failed the NCLEX-PN twice in Florida and she thinks if she takes it again the third time she will have to do a remediation program and she does not want to do that She asked me if she went to another state (she brought up new mexico) she would be able to take it more than the 3 time that florida has before remediation. Does anyone have any information in that being a reality Thank you :)

I was looking around the site and didnt see anyone ask this yet So here i go To the best of anyones knowledge is there any crna program that follows the medical model rather than the nursing model?

Hello, all ! I have been having a tough time getting a facility to permit me to shadow their CRNA's. I work at a large teaching hospital and still can't get in with a CRNA for a shift. So here I am enlisting your help Does anyone know of any facility in Florida (Tampa,FL but willing to travel) that will allow me to shadow a CRNA and see the day to day function? Thank you

Thank you all for your input i have applied to several residency program and have an interview monday. It is extremely difficult to just be put into ICU the hospital would rather place you in a PACU/tele floor to get your skills up i am finding out. I would be willing to sacrifice an ICU position if i find a hospital that has a great reputation for training new graduate. For a list of residency program i found this website and it was extremely helpful to me http://www.ohsu.edu/xd/education/schools/school-of-nursing/students/resources/upload/Guide-to-Hospital-Nursing-Residency-and-New-Graduate-Programs-Updated-7-2014.pdf

That is AWESOME , i am glad you are having such a great experience!!! :) I look into that intership program and they must currently not be taking application because i do not see anywhere to apply for the program but I do so the webpage for it so i will have to give them a call tomorrow morning ! If you dont mind me asking how long do you get to spend at each floor as well as how long is the total program?

Hello everyone, I am a brand new ADN nurse that graduated in may and had an amazing time during my ICU rotation (polly the only place i felt like i belong doing nursing school) so I am commited to tackling the ICU beast but first i have to let them open up the door for me! >. With your help and wisdom, Does anyone know any active intership/residency program tailored for a new graduate wanting to focus ICU. I would prefer florida programs but beggars cant be chooser so i am willing to travel as well :) THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME
