  1. Post Masters Certificate Program 3P's classes

    belljar1995 replied to jstrombsn's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    You might want to try Drexel or Capella for single /non-matric

  2. Do you have a previous bachelors degree before going into nursing? (RPN/RN/LPN)

    belljar1995 replied to suits2scrubz's topic in General Nursing

    Definitely will be no where near the oldest and even if you are the oldest, it wouldn't matter. All that matters is the work you do in the program. However, it is important to know what you want- you...

  3. anxiety about evening Childcare

    belljar1995 replied to Mahogany77's topic in General Nursing

    As a parent, you will always have these anxieties and feelings of guilt. As you said, this investment in yourself will benefit your child over the long term. I too did nursing school, working, etc and...

  4. Should I not look back at nursing ever again?

    belljar1995 replied to nocturna's topic in General Students

    If you really want to go into nursing, you should not let one failure be the reason to keep you out. Certainly you need to be competent to give medications, but does one failure mean that you can not...

  5. PVT for RN NCLEX

    belljar1995 replied to CaliHHRN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I think when I did it, it also asked for my cc info etc---you pretty much have to go all of the way and click submit . At that point it would tell you if you can no longer register due to having...

  6. How old is too old to become a new RN?

    belljar1995 replied to CathyH's topic in General Nursing

    If this is something that you want to do, then go for it. ! You only live once and as the saying goes.... regrets are often about the things we didn't do.... (or something like that!). The oral...

  7. Nurse Practitioners without work experience as an RN: How did you fare?

    belljar1995 replied to smalli's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I never had any RN experience before my MSN direct entry program, but I had experience in a psychiatric setting as a psychologist. My classmates also never had any RN experience but 95% had really...

  8. Need help from mom nurses please

    belljar1995 replied to Wanttobeamom's topic in General Nursing

    I attended nursing school (and am finishing the final msn portion) with a newborn, while my partner was living in another state while he was attending PA school. I also was still committed to working...

  9. NYC new grads- question about license verification.

    belljar1995 replied to NYNewGrad16's topic in New York Nursing

    this was early march-- which makes sense because all the dec/jan grads come through. my sense is now is a terrible time with may/june grads--but hang in there--it WILL

  10. NYC new grads- question about license verification.

    belljar1995 replied to NYNewGrad16's topic in New York Nursing

    Mine took a good two weeks post test date. I called the NY BON and they told me that they were particularly swamped--so don't worry too much if you see yourself at the 2 week mark. It probably just...

  11. Accelerated Masters with no Nursing background

    belljar1995 replied to Katie_dogluvr's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Here is one example: a meta-analysis done of 10 years worth of studies (published date 2013) demonstrating that on 11 patient outcomes NPs performed at level or *better* than MDs. Quality &...

  12. Reputable Nursing Agencies

    belljar1995 replied to Bklyn's topic in New York Nursing

    There are a few agencies in NYC that hire new grad RN and LPNs and offer training/orientation. For example: White Glove, Pride Global and Tem Agency. White Glove in particular seems to have a 2-3...

  13. Accelerated Masters with no Nursing background

    belljar1995 replied to Katie_dogluvr's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    This is just silly. No one graduates from MSN/NP program without ever laying eyes on a patient! You do spend many hours learning (on real patients!) and then following graduation that learning...

  14. Accelerated Masters with no Nursing background

    belljar1995 replied to Katie_dogluvr's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think a nursing + biomedical engineering degree would be an awesome combination! I also completed a direct-entry program--the first year was intense hospital-clinical-bedside nursing, but after that...

  16. Out of State CA RN by endorsement

    belljar1995 posted a topic in California Nursing

    HI everyone, I am presently in NY and am applying for my license (RN) by endorsement in CA. I went online, did the Breeze app, printed out the form to mail, got a 2 X 2 photo, ordered transcripts,...

  17. No experience & No job history

    belljar1995 replied to Laura_G_in_ID's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I think your resume looks great and you do have experience and many excellent skills. It's hard to be a single mom and make it all work, but it can be done. It is crucial to have a support network. In...

  18. Post Graduate Certificate Option Advice

    belljar1995 posted a topic in General Nursing

    HI everyone, My employer offers a pretty generous tuition reimbursement/continuing ed program and I was considering a post-grad certificate in either nursing education OR nursing /clinical trial...

  19. I'm afraid that I will never become a nurse and be stuck with 11k in loans

    belljar1995 replied to Keracee's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It sounds like your mom is already doing a lot to support you (paying for your classes, etc). Co-signing a private loan is a terrible idea for anyone, including a parent. Private school loans are non...

  20. PVT for RN NCLEX

    belljar1995 replied to CaliHHRN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Sorry to hear this! It sounds like you just did this too early--so unfortunately, you won't know until the quick results arrive (likely tomorrow?). Keep us posted! Hopefully you did

  21. Accepted to FNP program, an $80,000 student loan worth it? I need advice!

    belljar1995 replied to Aik0's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    It's alot to think about for sure. The most important issue to consider is...can you successfully complete this program at this time? The worst thing would be to do poorly, drop out or skate through...

  22. What's up with all the 'failed NCLEX' posts?

    belljar1995 replied to Magsulfate's topic in General Nursing

    I attended an Ivy league nursing school (as well as an Ivy league undergrad and graduate school prior to entering nursing school). I also sat for a national (state boards) licensing exam in psych. I...

  23. Should I give up?

    belljar1995 replied to mcmullenbrooke's topic in General Students

    Hmm.....what about trying an LPN program ? If you can be successful there, it may boost your confidence along with your ability to tackle some of these prereqs. In addition, you can get some work in...

  24. I just took the NCLEX and stopped at 75 and did PVT please help!!!

    belljar1995 replied to Ditayler's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    how did you get email from board? I'm in NY, should I register something? They won't email you about the license, but they will respond to your email about your license and the processing time. It...

  25. I just took the NCLEX and stopped at 75 and did PVT please help!!!

    belljar1995 replied to Ditayler's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Trust me...NY likely won't be posting anything for you this week. They said 1 week (yesterday) post exam for processing and then a few additional days for hard copy of the license. Quick results will...
