Hello All - I'm an ABSN student currently in the 4th semester (of 6) preparing to apply for a nursing student EXTERNSHIP for Summer semester. I will also be competing for competitive placement for INTERNSHIP/PRECEPTORSHIP in the Fall semester over w...

Hello - I graduated from CSUSM ABSN I was in their 27th cohort. I felt fairly well prepared for 'basic' nursing ... as in anything in ambulatory care and Medsurg. However, I did not feel well prepared for acute care skills (ICU/ED). Even though I co...

Where and how to I score one of these gigs??? i have a Master's in HCM and am also CCM certified... I did cm for almost 3 years before i went and got my ABSN. Now I have a year of clinical experience as a floor RN and would love to go back to CM on ...

May I ask which program you got into? CONGRATS BTW ?

A couple months after you suggested this post my previous employer contacted ME for a FT position working from home as a your RN... pay was the same as my bedside position so I took it. Now I get to 'stay away from the COVID unit' which was a blessin...

Which school did you find that locals clinical for you??? I've still been unable to find one yet!

the CA Law passed in 1/2015 SOUNDS GREAT but doesn't really help with matters of the BRN as DUIs are considered a conviction of MORAL TURPITUDE which is considered to be of relevance to the practice of nursing. Therefore, even if your DUI is expunged...

Did you get your license?

Just figured I'd start the thread! Applied to MICU/SICU & Med Surg/PCU for my second choice. Unsure why I applied as I am unlikely to be licensed by Feb 7th but - Wishful thinking I guess! Graduation date is 12/15/18. :) Best of luck to everyo...

Now that the site is back up again -- Curious if anyone else on here got the interview Invite for Sharp CV ICU track? I interviewed on 1/10/19 and was told they still had about half the interviews to go... So I would be notified by phone call regar...

Hi Tee_byrd Yes the Chronic Care Professional certification has been a great learning experience, and tool to use during my career as a case manager. It is completed through the Health Sciences Institute. You pay for both the book, as well as the te...

Hello all! I join the boards today as I'm about a month into my application process into the WGU pre-licensure BSN program and - I AM A NERVOUS WRECK! My enrollment counselor is the sweetest person ever and does her part to keep be reassured and cal...

Just got a call for an interview for ICU track! They're scheduling for out for first week January ❤️ Best of luck all

That would actually be even better for me! LOL so - I guess i don't mind that :)

So does this mean the M/SICU rotation is getting cancelled ???

As far as I know rejections and interview invites for ED were the first to be completed. I know of some poeple having been invited for interviews for the MS/PCU rotation (both internal and external). However, I have not heard of anyone who got an inv...

I've not heard of anyone internal or external receiving invites for ICU as of yet!

Mine status has changed to "Under Consideration" as of this morning, but the actual date of "last update" didn't change which was weird lol

Yes i do know of 1 individual in my cohort

ACCORDING TO SHARPS WEBSITE Monday, October 15, noon PST: Position posted Monday, October 22, 5pm PST: Last day to apply; all applications must be received October - November: Applications reviewed November - January: Interviews take place February...

I heard some people have already been told - NO by Sharp's HR which is pretty quick turn around... In terms of hearing back for Interviews I think that will be in about 2 weeks and continuing on into December. Sometimes they interview candidates twi...

I got the email today - my first choice was M/SICU

Hello! I am currently in the process and writing (and rewritting) my letter multiple times over.... It is certainly humbling indeed... Its 4 pages of explaining how life was back 7 years ago, what happened, what i've done since and how different life...

Anyone else surprised by the lack of choices this time around? Typically at least 3 locations open up spots - This time only 3 slots ALL in Chula and 1 slot for Mary Birch... I was somewhat disappointed. But hear the next one opening up in Janurary s...

Today's post is going to focus on different PT or Per-Diem jobs for nursing students. Most nursing students that are in coursework to obtain initial licensure are attending full-time, or nearly full time. Therefore, those of us that still need to ear...
