    seasidesoul replied to squeakercarp's topic in First Year After Licensure

    seasidesoul replied to mariarose's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    You do not need to retake the NCLEX, but you will need to submit paperwork for licensure in the state you want to work in. Requirements vary, as does how long the process will take. If possible, I...

  7. Clinical sites, you choose or you're assigned?

  8. How much of a pay cut is worth the name and experience?

    seasidesoul replied to mooshgigila's topic in General Nursing

  12. BMI? reliable or just a short cut?

    seasidesoul replied to nealiiih's topic in General Nursing

    BMI doesn't look at the whole story, nor does it apply to the entire population. My goal is always to treat my patients as individuals. I can see, to some extent, why BMI can be a useful tool when it...
