    Continuing Education

    inthecosmos replied to nenyart92's topic in General Nursing

    LPN to RN is your first step. This is imperative REGARDLESS of what step you take. LPN/LVN to BSN programs exist, but I have NEVER seen a LPN/LVN to MSN program. While they may exist, I would not...

    Job searching: heads up or no heads up?

    inthecosmos replied to dma13's topic in General Nursing

    Wanting to expand your experience is never a bad thing. In interviews, they'll ask why you want to transfer. As long as you don't paint a picture of your previous boss as the worst guy ever, it should...

    How long to work in one place?

    If no criminal charges ever came about, the BON isn't going to know unless you explicitly tell them. If you were involuntarily commited, that may show up, but otherwise voluntary treatment shouldn't....

    inthecosmos replied to NewNurs2020's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Go to cheaper school and use Pell grant first! If your main concern is cost, this is the best option. Especially because community colleges can offer smaller grants and scholarships to their students...

    As a relatively new grad still on orientation, I had a 28 year-old patient on tons of chemo. He wasn't responding to treatment and with a heavy heart, his mother had to make her baby a DNR. He was...
