   MR-RN15 replied to MR-RN15's topic in Emergency

   I let my EMT-P expire from the NREMT. In California the levels are EMT and Paramedic. I don't have any medic experience other than paramedic school. I went to school in Kern County which has a large scope of practice and the ambulance companies are s...

   I can do that, how would I go about changing my username then? EDIT: Clearly, I figured this out. Thanks for the warning.

3. ER New Grad RN - Previously Paramedic

   MR-RN15 posted a topic in Emergency

   In my experience during nursing school, many of the nurses didn't know what a Paramedic was compared to an EMT. Many times they believed that the EMT was higher than a Paramedic. They obviously didn't know what the scope of practice these licenses ha...

   MR-RN15 posted a topic in NP

   My ultimate goal is to become a Nurse Practitioner and work in the ER. Is this common? From my searches online, I found one program that offers the NP with a specialty in emergency care. I'd love to hear from other ER nurses about this or others who ...

5. Nursing School Horror Stories

   MR-RN15 posted a topic in General Students

   I'm sure we've all experienced something that shocked us from nursing school. I think I was fortunate that none of them put me in an ethical dilemma, but I could share one story to start. On my way to school I suffered some car trouble and I ended up...

6. Men in Nursing

   MR-RN15 posted a topic in Men

   What is the outlook for men in nursing? I have heard previously that males are more desirable as employees because of physical strength and that they don't need to take as long of a maternity leave. I also realize that men are the minority currently ...

   It worked fine for both me and my fiance. We got the good message and ended up passing. We live in CA and checked the results about 4 hours after and again the following day with the same message.

9. Anyone only use 1-3 resources and pass NCLEX?

   MR-RN15 replied to nurse1990's topic in NCLEX

   I used the Saunders and the Mastery App as my two true resources. I also had a few other books which I used solely for practice test questions and only the last few days before the test. I think those two resources were the best out of all of the one...

    MR-RN15 replied to registerednutrn's topic in Western Governors

    Not sure if you started the WGU program yet, but CSU San Marcos has an online program and it's a good alternative to WGU that I have found. Applications are being accepted and you can get the fee waived. I think I'll be pursuing this rather than WGU ...
