   Working in a rural area sounds good in theory until you're actually living in a rural area. Anyways, good luck

   39 months @ 138k not including cost of living. What's the appeal with this school? Why would anybody want to go here if they weren't geographically tied down to a

   CCRNdude replied to zumbaRN4's topic in First Year After Licensure

   If you want to work in ICU, I would go with hospital #2. I work with a couple of former Hoag employees (one of them being an ex-nurse manager), and neither had great things to say, other than that...

   Barry posted outcomes for the graduating class of 2016. There was a 24 percent attrition rate for the class. I'm coming from out of state, so I don't really know anybody who has graduated from the...

   The interview was quick and easy. It almost seems like not enough time to sell yourself, but overall I got good vibes from the faculty. They were all nice, and they do their best to make you...

    I asked how many spots they have left in the program and was told 25-30. Maybe some spots opened up because other people accepted offers from other schools? I recently shadowed again and spoke with...

11. Should ICU get more pay than floor nursing?!?

    CCRNdude replied to francoml's topic in MICU, SICU

    Also, a couple of salary sites state that ICU/critical care salaries are 5-7% higher than the average RN salary. Why is this? Are individuals who have worked both the floors and ICU the only ones that...

    I just enjoy debate for the sake of debating. I honestly don't care either way. I don't mean to offend anyone. I'll be the first to say that med/surg is hard work. However, we're all entitled to an...

15. Should ICU get more pay than floor nursing?!?

    CCRNdude replied to francoml's topic in MICU, SICU

    I've worked both the floor and the ICU. Considering that hospitals charge an arm and a leg for ICU care, and the ICU nurses are with the patient 24/7, I do think that ICU nurses should be paid a least...
