I'm going to assume you are talking about NCC, and I would say maternal-newborn is probably your best choice.

We don't have any in my facility.

I know, I was surprised. I posted on here while waiting to get mine, and someone else commented & said they sent theirs a day before mine & their license was active a day before mine. So same timeline.

I sent mine in April 7th, check was cashed May 2nd, & my license was active May 3rd. I did electronic fingerprints & mailed it USPS priority mail. That was this year.

I'm in northern indiana. New grads start in our L&D at $25/hr.

First of all, who was training you from 3-10? Whoever was training you should be the person responsible for staying. However, it is common to get mandated to stay in this line of work. Someone has to take care of the patients, so if your relief doesn...

Hey all, I'm a relatively new RN working in l&d. I don't have any children myself, so when it comes to breastfeeding, I feel like my knowledge is limited. Does anyone have any suggestions for good educational resources? I'm looking to learn more ...

Thank you all for the responses!!! I'm going be to checking out all of your suggestions :)

I just checked the site again and it's active :)

Not yet!

My check was cashed today, so I'm assuming mine will be active soon!

Any update? I'm going to try to call tomorrow.

I just posted about this as well. I sent mine out the same day, and still haven't heard anything either. I sent it usps priority mail, so I know it got to their po box on that Wednesday. Let me know if you hear anything! & I will let you know as ...

I don't think you will get hired as a CNA when you graduate in a month. Why would they go through all the time to train you, when you would be leaving them in 2 months? I would start applying for nursing jobs. Also, most new grad programs are already...

Current job: Local hospital, 7 miles away, 15min commute 56hour/2weeks, no benefits $27/hour 8 hr shifts Job prospect: University hospital (w/ magnet status), 35 miles away, 1-1.5hr commute 72hr/2weeks, full benefits $31.50/hour 12 hour shifts. ...

We use ascom too. I haven't had any issues with it.

I agree, but would they understand because it's one of the most highly ranked hospitals in country? Ughhh, everyone has a clear answer for me but for some reason, I am still going back and forth.

I worked as a tech in L&D while in nursing school, and then was hired as a new grad RN. So it's possible :)

I'm surprised nobody has said take the other job....I must have my answer then!

Thanks for the advice guys! I was just talking about the whole winter thing as well. We have had a nasty winter this year, and the commute would have been terrible. I'm leaning towards staying at my current job, but I just needed some advice from nur...

Just try PVT. Don't kill yourself waiting when you can do that right now.
