Hello all! So I'm currently in the progress of gaining my pin through the NMC. Can anyone please provide tips/guidance on the NMC CBT! I've taken it once and failed. Walked out of the test thinking it...
Hi! This will be my second time applying as a NICU RN for the Air Force. I'm applying to the September boards. It would be great to hear from anyone applying to these boards as well! I posted a...
So I have no military experience and have less then 4 years nursing experience and my first duty station is going to be Japan. And I had basically thrown going overseas out the window because I was...
You're not the only one! I want to know so bad! I keep checking my email and have my phone on me at all times lol it's so hard not to text my recruiter every day to see if he knows anything new!
Thank you! Congratulations to you too!! I can't wait to find out when I'll be going to COT or where my base will be. At least with NICU I only have 4 bases I can go to, but it's still stressful not...
Hey all! I'm applying as a fully qualified applicant in September for the NICU identifier. Anyone else applying next month? I heard from my recruiter that the board meets September 11. The only thing...
My recruiter called me today and the board results are out! I was selected as a NICU nurse. Didn't get my COT date or my base yet, but he said that should be out next week! Anxious to hear everyone...
theflashbang... were you told by your recruiter that we would find out Oct 19? Didn't hear that from mine, but it would be great to know that we would find out that day or sooner!

Is anyone else on here applying for FY 2015 for Air Force? I'm in the process of applying for the selection board in October 2014 and it would be great to hear from someone else also applying for the...
I don't think it matters which interview you do first. They both just have to be done prior to your package being submitted. Unless your chief nurse was the specialist for the area you're applying....
Yeah, my recruiter said your package is due on Sept. 11 and that the board meets end of September. And then they don't release the results until mid-October. I just did my Chief Nurse interview...
I just went to MEPS last week and while there (not sure how true this is) but the Chief Medical Officer there said to not lie about any preexisting condition because if they find out about it while...

I have used both Neobar and Neofits. My previous hospital used the Neobar, I felt that sometimes it was hard to change out and didn't stick to the patient's face that well. My new hospital just...
Good luck! Even though September/October feels far away, I know that it's going to be here before we know it! I'm waiting on one last letter of recommendation and then doing my interviews in August!...

One hospital i work at got rid of CaviWipes because they're known to cause cancer hence why you always have to wear gloves when wearing them. They switched to hydrogen peroxide wipes by Clorox. We...
