  1. Any Air Force new grad applicants FY2016?

    Camo-angel replied to Ashdx21's topic in Government, Military

    I think we may get around 150-200, hopefully. Last year there were over 300 applicants, and I remember my recruiter had 12 packets he sent himself. This year there's only about 5 or 6 packets (I only...

  2. US Navy & NCP

    Camo-angel replied to avansant's topic in Government, Military

    Not 100% sure on Navy, but most branches require a BSN before you commission. I know the Air Force doesn't take associates, you MUST have a Bachelors in Nursing. They let you apply if you're within a...

  3. L&D BSN RN interested in joining USAF

    Camo-angel replied to Sreeder721's topic in Government, Military

    Agreed, contact a local healthcare recruiter, they can give you information on how many spots they have for L&D/OB nurses. It is generally very competitive, they may have 5 spots for the entire...

  4. New Graduate RN,BSN NO JOBS 10/15/14

    Camo-angel replied to BabyRN2222's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    You may have to look in other states to be honest. Certain areas will hire you in the blink of an eye because they need nurses. If you can, consider moving. If not, volunteer as much as you can,...

  5. What TEAS score did you get & did you get accepted in the nursing program?

    Camo-angel replied to nursein2012's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    I suppose whether or not you get in depends on how your specific program looks at applicants. My program ONLY cared about TEAS score and GPA, nothing else mattered at all. They combined your GPA and...

  6. Any Air Force new grad applicants FY2016?

    Camo-angel replied to Ashdx21's topic in Government, Military

    How is everyone's application going for summer? Only a few more months before the board meets, and I think several of you were graduating in

  7. Air Force Nursing

    Camo-angel replied to HerKat's topic in Flight, Surface Transport

    I know it's been a bit since you posted, but to add on to what has already been said, make sure you are talking to the correct recruiter (if/when you contact one). Any time you hear "enlisted" that...

  8. Any Air Force new grad applicants FY2016?

    Camo-angel replied to Ashdx21's topic in Government, Military

    Inquisitive Nurse, yes they give you half your experience towards your rank. So if you have 6 years RN experience, you get 3 years towards your rank and could come in as O-2 or O-3. But that is only...

  9. Can I join the NAVY or AIRFORCE???

    Camo-angel replied to stressedout&sad's topic in Government, Military

    Yes a BSN counts as a bachelor's degree in the Air Force. They require a Bachelor's for nurses to apply, so as long as you have the BSN you're fine, they won't take Associates. If you want to go in as...

  10. Any Air Force new grad applicants FY2016?

    Camo-angel replied to Ashdx21's topic in Government, Military

    There are not a ton of positions available right now from military downsizing. I don't have an exact number, but there are older threads that could give you an estimate from what they had previously....

  11. Any Air Force new grad applicants FY2016?

    Camo-angel replied to Ashdx21's topic in Government, Military

    I have no idea, since FQ slots are specific to the nurse positions. They take a range of nurses, but you have to choose a specialty like ER, OR, clinical, peds,

  12. Any Air Force new grad applicants FY2016?

    Camo-angel replied to Ashdx21's topic in Government, Military

    I applied last year and wasn't accepted, that's how I have this info from last year. My recruiter told me the board meets in July this year, like last year. We "should" have results around the end of...

  13. Any Air Force new grad applicants FY2016?

    Camo-angel replied to Ashdx21's topic in Government, Military

    TinkyT, are you applying to the NTP or FQ route? Last year there were 35 total spots for NTP, about 5 for OB and the rest medsurg. There were also over 300 applicants last year. It would be wonderful...

  14. N'ville and Mempho New Grad Salaries

    Camo-angel replied to LookingforChange's topic in Tennessee Nursing

    St Thomas has new nurse programs that start every few months, I think the next one isn't until July or so. But starting pay new grad at St Thomas is 20.80, night differential 3.75, evening...

  15. Navy Nurse

    Camo-angel replied to countrygirl4298's topic in Government, Military

    I don't know much about the Navy, however if you want to be a nurse in the Navy (for more reasons than just the college money) you should look into Navy ROTC. You would be part of a college ROTC...

  16. New Grad nurse @SNF...now on verge of quitting.

    Camo-angel replied to iamNurse23's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I'm struggling with a similar issue. I graduated in December, applied everywhere but only a nursing home called me back. They offered me a PRN job, which I took, and a week later I interviewed at a...

  17. Joining Air Force Nurse Corps

    Camo-angel replied to AprilOdum's topic in Government, Military

    Let me say first, I am not in the Air Force, I am simply applying this summer for the NTP to be a nurse. So I will answer you as best I can from the information I've gathered myself. There are tons of...

  18. Chief Nurse Interview Question

    Camo-angel posted a topic in Government, Military

    Hello all, I just found out my Chief Nurse interview for the Air Force is March 5th. I'm applying for NTP, not FQ. I applied last year and didn't make it, so I know what the interview is like....

  19. Chief Nurse Interview Question

    Camo-angel replied to Camo-angel's topic in Government, Military

    By the way, chief nurse interview was postponed due to bad weather and I now have a PRN nursing home job and a full-time PCU job. I think I'm good

  20. Need help prioritizing my nursing diagnosis.

    Camo-angel replied to hellohihowareyou's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    This can often depend on the instructor and situation, so prioritization is tricky. What I think of between risk for bleeding and pain is this: what is going to kill them faster? Pain or bleeding? So...

  21. Hypocalcemia - ATI priority assessment

    Camo-angel replied to LiveFit99's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Agreed, think of what will harm the patient. Sometimes it feels odd to think a heart rate of 60 or 58 is so serious, but ultimately that is effecting everything else. Without the blood pumping...

  22. Thoughts on Nashville State CC Nursing Program

    Camo-angel replied to nurseD1994's topic in Tennessee Nursing

    I do not know anything about NSCC but I graduated form APSU's program in Fall. It was a fantastic program in my opinion. Do everything you can to be selected, because it doesn't just produce nurses,...

  23. Salary for a new nurse in Nashville

    Camo-angel replied to aoliver13's topic in Tennessee Nursing

    In case anyone's interested, starting pay new grad at St Thomas is 20.80, night differential 3.75, evening differential 3.75, weekend differential 2. This was from their new grad program...

  24. Air Force NTP June/July2015

    Camo-angel replied to musclesmascara's topic in Government, Military

    I'm applying to the NTP this summer as well, med-surg route. There are tons of people from this site that went through this already, some are still

  25. Questions about Navy Nursing. HELP!

    Camo-angel replied to streetjm's topic in Government, Military

    On the note of recruiters, don't be frightened off, you just need to make sure you find the correct recruiter. The recruiters that show up at malls aren't able to give you the information you need to...
