Oh boy where do I start with Ca brn?! I can say I'm fed up with the whole process. I can never get a clear answer to my questions which are as followed; what is the time frame for a military spouse applying for RN Endorsement? What is the status of...

I recently accepted a job as a MDS nurse at a LTC facility. Ive been pretty skeptical most of my 2nd day of orientation because I'm not sure if they are going to pull me to be a floor nurse. I asked the DON about what does orientation entail and who ...

I graduated with my ASN but didn't have a problem finding a job. I guess it depends on where you live. Good luck!

I would just put pursuing education. No need for details especially any negative ones. And I had a bad 1st job experience for a month and a half and never added them to my resume. I never had a problem with finding other jobs.

Yeah your application is finally put together

Hi I have 3 jobs offers and I'm not too sure which one to choose. Each job has its pros and cons so please help me decide. Just alittle about me I am new to the San Diego area. I am a military spouse with a three year old son. My husbands schedule is...

I was thinking that but could you give input in thr polls?

I've been thinking about the MDS position effecting my chances of becoming a bedside nurse in the future but to be honest it doesn't bother me. I started my career off as a bedside nurse but when I had my son I wanted more stable hours so I worked an...

My husband is in the Navy. I live in San Diego.

So I took the time to do the math and it would take my husband and myself 9 months to be debt free from with the job offering $6 less and 8 months with the two other jobs. I didn't factor in deployment pay for next year so we may be debt free a lot s...

Its not the worse offer in the world but I based what I wanted off some research. I can afford the pay but that means certain bills will take longer to pay off than expected. The employer was very positive and the environment welcoming, it's just tha...

I have experience in LTC bedside nursing from being a LPN and yes it could be hectic throughout the shift but the RN's were hardly ever at a cart. They would handle admissions, discharges, orders, provider phone calls, help cover lunches, and etc. I ...

You're absolutely right! Thanks for your advice :)

yes all the jobs are in LTC. As far as the MDS position I would do MDS assessments, care plans, and be trained in ICD 10 codes from my understanding when I asked the DSD.

I really wish I could answer how often but I don't know myself. But what I can tell you is that I turned the position down on Monday and was called this morning about the sudden opening in the day time.

My advice to you is to find out where all of the SNF's near you are located. Write down the addresses along with a resume tailored made to that facility. Also make sure you have your cover letter ready along with letters of recommendations from your...

Google Ca BRN complaint about the board. It should pop up. You can also call 916-574-7600 to speak with someone directly. Just request to speak to a supervisor and refuse to be sent to a voicemail. Ask to wait and speak to one. And also make sure you...

I'm an RN who use to be a LPN. Thanks for the words of encouragement. It's sucks but I know what I have to offer. So I'll just wait on my temp license then get back into job hunting. I'm to determined to give up :)

Today I interviewed by a hospice agency. The position is for RN Case Manager so I was pretty excited since that is what I really want to do. So here's my background I'm a newly licensed RN with LPN background. I sent in my resume and filled out an ap...

Update: I lost the position. Here's why I was waiting on my license to get approved by the board. I made the interviewer aware of this. She told me if my license didn't come in time then my orientation would be put on hold. So I came in for a few hou...

So I lost the job offer because my license hasn't come in yet. I also found out the board made a mistake on my application. They didn't process me as a military spouse. So yup I'm bummed and beyond pissed.

I just called and asked to speak to the supervisor because I was so fed up with hearing the same thing. You can ask to just tell them you'll hold and don't want to be transfered to a voicemail. You can also file a complaint about the board which they...

I hate them with a passion! I've filed a complaint and that office will not like me tomorrow morning!

Did you apply for RN or LVN?
