Not in all cases. I walked feeling ok but not confident and passed in 75. Found out 24 hours after seeing my name on my state BON site. You could check your states BON site and see if your name is on their. Not sure if your state offers that or you ...
Hi all! I received two offers and i am having a hard time deciding. First offer is from an outpatient chemo infusion nurse mon - fri 8:30-5p off weekends and major holidays. Second offer is in am observational unit in one of the major local hospital....
Thank you for sharing your journey. You are right that not all jobs is what you expect them to be even if they say this or that. and it is terrifying because this is all new to me and thats what life is all about right. You live and you learn and for...
It is def nice to have 4 days off. I think I just gotten use to the outpatient setting working previously as a tech while I was going to nursing school. I like the idea of knowing that I will be home at a certain time and know that I have my weekends...
I honestly dont see myself doing bedside nursjng forever. I want to eventually have a set schedule the typical 9-5. But I really want to see how far acute setting can take me.
Im on the same boat and I have decided to go into outpatient nursing. The timing of me coming on board on a critical unit with lack of training places my license and my patients safety at risk. Its sad and I have been unhappy the past few weeks and T...
Hi all! So I recently accepted an offer for a new grad program and So far I have been thrown in the fire to take patients on my own due to short staffing. Overall I feel that I am not where I am suppose to be in regards to training. Given access to m...

From what I remember, the payment if broken will be prorated. I dont recall seeing a set amount that is required to be paid back if I was to break it. I will call my state dept of labor and inquire with them. Thank you!
I believe the program is about 8k and they do prorate. I was told that a former employee who broke the contract ended up paying 2k. So yes if I do end up leaving then I will work something out with the company so I am able to pay them what I owe. I ...
Yes I would understand why I would be placed on their "DNR" (Do Not Rehire) list. I did bring this up and I do see the changes thats taking place to help me succeed in their program. However, it is too early to be sure because who knows what can happ...
No they did not give me a sign on bonus. So does that mean I wont qualify as a new grad if I do decide to leave the hosp im currently at and purse another hosp new grad program?
Thanks again for the input. Glad to know that Its not board related. Would hate to have a discipline under my license being so new in this nursing world. Lol
Thank for the feedback y'all. I feel that management is not abiding by the contract and so happened that I am not the only one feeling this way in my program. I am not the type to jump from job to job but An opportunity came up with my dream hospit...
