  1. First Semester Jitters

    kkbb replied to DotFlower's topic in General Students

    I just graduated last month and took (and passed) the NCLEX this week. So while I am no longer a student, I am not that long out of school. 1. We were required to have lap tops during our...

  2. SEVERE Anxiety about the NCLEX

    kkbb replied to Mcastle124's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I think it is normal to feel some anxiety about the NCLEX. There are just so much that we can be tested on. I take my text in less than a week and I too have a job pending the exam. Here is how I...

    kkbb replied to JeniV's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I received an email May 1st at the end of the day. It said I had 24 hours to start background and 72 hours to contact occupational health. I think when I actually saw it I had maybe 2 hours left...

    kkbb replied to BrittanyAlyson13's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I live in Surprise, so about 30 miles away. My husband and I talked about it and we will wait to move closer for a while. But that is only because I am not ready to make the kiddos change schools....

    kkbb replied to JeniV's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I interviewed April 3rd. I have been checking my email and application status page like a crazy person. I keep thinking that it isn't real or something. My status changed to interview this morning...

    kkbb replied to BrittanyAlyson13's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I wasn't emailed the unit preference list before, but they gave it to me when I got there. I didn't want to rank them because I would be happy with any of them. I didn't have any clinical rotations...

  17. Mayo Residency 2017

    kkbb replied to BrittanyAlyson13's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I interviewed yesterday. I answered as best I could, but the scenario questions threw me a little. All in all I thought I did as well as I could. I did think about a few things I should have said...

  18. Mayo Residency 2017

    kkbb replied to BrittanyAlyson13's topic in Arizona Nursing

    My experience listed was all my clinical sites and working as a MA. I also included my volunteer work and special awards/achievements. From what I understand, it is really hard to get critical...

  19. Mayo Residency 2017

    kkbb replied to BrittanyAlyson13's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I am in Arizona, and have no previous involvement with Mayo. It is still early in their process. From previous groups, it looks like it can take a couple of weeks to get all the interviews scheduled...

    kkbb replied to BrittanyAlyson13's topic in Arizona Nursing

  23. Are you about to graduate?

    kkbb replied to SaltySarcasticSally's topic in General Students

    I have 50 days left. I am playing on AN instead of working on my care plan that is due by midnight tonight, if that gives you any insight to my ability to push through at this point. I think my...

  24. PCP refuses to release client's labs despite signed consent/release

    kkbb replied to smartblnde's topic in General Nursing

    Based on my own working experience as a MA and office manager for a PCP I am going to guess that this provider is not intimidated. More than likely, s/he has no idea that you requested lab results....

  25. Why do parents think schools are daycares?

    kkbb replied to MrNurse(x2)'s topic in School

    I will admit that I am not a school nurse, heck....I'm not even a nurse yet (one more semester to go), BUT I am a parent with school aged children. Our school district has the school calendars...
