  1. PRN Hour Requirements?

    kgg6 posted a topic in General Nursing

    Hey! Just curious for any Cleveland area nurses: what are the PRN hourly requirements where you work? I've heard some places have been increasing their time committments, so many are now requiring...

  2. HPSP Air Force Nurse-Midwife

    kgg6 posted a topic in Government, Military

    Hey All! I just sent in the majority of my paperwork for the Health Professions Air Force Scholarship. My recruiter has been great about collecting the documents (and there were a lot of them)....

    Hey! I was just wondering if anyone else is applying to Class 142 at Frontier, either Midwifery or FNP? I'm submitting all of my materials tomorrow. Good luck,

  5. Sigma Theta Tau Benefits

    kgg6 posted a topic in General Nursing

    Has everyone found lifelong membership of Sigma Theta Tau to be beneficial? Are there any scholarships or grants that you were able to apply for, and do employers like to know that a RN is a member of...

  6. MAGNET Designation

    kgg6 posted a topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Something interesting I learned in class today -- RNs at Magnet designated hospitals have lower job satisfaction rates than hospitals without that designation. We discussed possible reasons for this,...

  7. New Grads VA Hiring

    kgg6 posted a topic in Government, Military

    Would anyone happen to know if the VA ever hires new grads? Does anyone have any good links on how to create a nursing resume that the finicky usajobs.gov will not filter out? Or is there no point to...

    kgg6 replied to kgg6's topic in Government, Military

    Congratulations! I'm so glad for you! Did they give you any details on how you're going to start, or what happens when? Was it your recruiter you heard from, or someone else entirely? Again,

  9. Transition for NA to RN

    kgg6 posted a topic in General Nursing

    Has anyone here transitioned from working as a PCNA (or the equivalent) to working as an RN on the same unit? Was it difficult to get used to a new role, and was the staff around you accepting of your...

  10. General New Grad Application Posting

    kgg6 replied to kgg6's topic in General Nursing

    This is good advice. I'm an NA at a large hospital now, so when I speak with a recruiter in HR I can ask them how L and D feels about New Grads. I made a few connections when I had clinicals there,...

  11. General New Grad Application Posting

    kgg6 posted a topic in General Nursing

    It seems that large hospitals have 'general application for new grads'. I would be especially interested in working on L and D, but I understand this work is more difficult to find than med-surg or...

  12. New Grads VA Hiring

    kgg6 replied to kgg6's topic in Government, Military

    Thank you for the responses! I was wondering if I could begin the application process in, say, April, even though I will probably take the NCLEX in June. But it sounds like I could only start the...

  13. MAGNET Designation

    kgg6 replied to kgg6's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    That's an excellent point, guys. I'm going to go through the presentation for the citation and ask the prof if need be. I'll get back to you with the resource (and whether it was valid or not, which...

  15. New Grad Advice

    kgg6 posted a topic in General Nursing

    I'm about to graduate from Nursing School! Any advice to a new grad getting started? Things you wish someone had told you about starting your career

  16. General New Grad Application Posting

    kgg6 replied to kgg6's topic in General Nursing

    I would prefer to start in L and D. However, if the position I am able to get is in another field then I would like to stay on that unit for several years before transferring to L and D. I understand...

  17. HPSP Air Force Nurse-Midwife

    kgg6 replied to kgg6's topic in Government, Military

    I'm sorry to hear news has not been positive right now, I'm sorry I still can't PM you! My recruiter told me that he doesn't think my application is being looked at this round because I might be in...

  18. HPSP Air Force Nurse-Midwife

    kgg6 replied to kgg6's topic in Government, Military

    Oh no, so few spots? I wonder what happened to the five spots they had for CNMs before? Did it sound like they made all of the decisions yesterday? Good luck to you as

  19. HPSP Air Force Nurse-Midwife

    kgg6 replied to kgg6's topic in Government, Military

    Soon! The decision will be made

  20. HPSP Air Force Nurse-Midwife

    kgg6 replied to kgg6's topic in Government, Military

    I believe he said seven spots when I asked him, although that was a few months ago. I think five sounds right for CNM spots, and then I think there are seven for FNP. I'm not sure how many applicants...

  21. HPSP Air Force Nurse-Midwife

    kgg6 replied to kgg6's topic in Government, Military

    That would be wonderful! I'm really glad you mentioned their changed preference for DNP programs, I had no idea before. It is nice to talk to someone who is also applying for the Midwife slots. I'm...

  22. HPSP Air Force Nurse-Midwife

    kgg6 replied to kgg6's topic in Government, Military

    Congratulations on your acceptance, that's wonderful! So when you mentioned the new preference for a DNP-MSN Midwife, I was confused (since Midwives really haven't started moving in the DNP...

    kgg6 replied to kgg6's topic in Government, Military

    That's wonderful to hear! I think it is always a wonderful indicator if someone likes their type of workplace, so I'm glad to hear you like the military midwife career. Thank

  25. Air Force FY 2015

    kgg6 replied to morgan_porgan's topic in Government, Military

    I'm also applying for FY2015 in the Air Force, HPSP. I've been accepted to a Nurse-Midwife program, and I am currently a second year Masters of Nursing (think BSN) student. All of my paper work is in,...
