  1. How do I enter lapse?

    I've searched the career advice section, and there really aren't many responses on that portion. I'm updating my resume. There is a 2 year span of unemployment. My husband transferred to another state for his job and we decided for me to stay at h...
  2. I was a CNA before nursing school. Honestly, I don't know of anything to really prepare yourself as this is an entry level position unless your local hospital has 'transporters'. Then, what you mainly do is move patients from the ER to the floors o...
  3. Open House at TMC - Novant - Did anyone go?

    Best of Luck!
  4. Open House at TMC - Novant - Did anyone go?

    Baptist was hiring new grads. They have a great orientation/preceptor program. An added plus is that it is a teaching facility. Not to take away from Novant facilities, they are good too. It's just that you would probably have a better chance of...
  5. Teaching Hospital vs. Non-teaching

    Another plus is that you always have someone there that you don't mind calling @ 0300 for something petty, but has to have a MD order.
  6. Open House at TMC - Novant - Did anyone go?

    Thomasville as far as I know is not really hiring for nursing right now. Matter of fact, the Piedmont area Novant hospitals have really slowed with hiring and their use of agency staffing.
  7. Do you ever feel like a monster?

    What I found most disturbing about this post was the response of the nurse manager the next a.m. :smackingf She seems quite charming. What happened to the days of nurse managers standing up for their staff? When I worked oncology, we had an unof...
  8. The late fee runs April 1-June30, which is $75. After that, your license lapses. http://sos.georgia.gov/acrobat/PLB/13%20Fee%20Schedule.pdf
  9. NEW LPN....needs help with Job questions

    I got my first job 4 weeks after passing NCLEX. I applied in person and followed up with a phone call 1 week later. I'm not sure online resume posting is the way to go right now from everything I've been reading lately. If I were looking for a job...
  10. LPNs with a Diploma vs LPNs with an Associate's Degree

    I have a diploma. I guess it depends on what state that you are in. But in the end, yes, all that matters is that you're a LPN and are licensed by your state BON.
  11. I'm new to Georgia

    I now live in NC due to my husband transferring. I don't know how much experience you have and any 'stereotypes' you've had to deal with, but the Medical Center floor I worked on, I was considered a 'nurse' just like all there. Only thing we couldn...
  12. I'm new to Georgia

    There is also Central State Hospital in Milledgeville that uses lots of LPN's if you don't mind psych or prison nursing.
  13. I'm new to Georgia

    That is where I worked when living there. The Medical Center does hire LPN's. However, you may want to call their Human Resources. Recently they have laid off management and cut back on the use of agency nurses. Oconee Regional Hospital in Mille...
  14. I'm new to Georgia

    To help you out better, what area are you in?
  15. LPN to RN Bridge in North Carolina

    Whatever you decide, good luck. I'm planning to start FTCC in the spring for the bridge program. If nothing else, you can work the 6 months and by the time the winter quarte rolls around again, you'll have it!
