Mgo Blue, I wanted to throw it out there that I work in a group home for intellectually and physically disabled persons, its very relaxed, wear what you want to work, and I sit probably 80% of my shift. Now the downside is you won't get skills really...

Beekee can you elaborate on the GPA issue? I plan to go for NP, so how migh this effect me? Is your GPA a pass/fail 3.0?

Question for you NICU, was this the entire RN to BSN that you finished in 6 months or did you already have some extra credits towards your BSN that helped shorten the time frame? Also, were you able to work full time during the program? Thanks.

In a regular nursing job? (Non travel, RN level) ?? How is this possible any idea?

Thanks for the reply Ned, sounds like once I get some Med Surg experience I may want to look into OR next.

eh, what is meant by the 3.0 kills your GPA? Also, I am located in Nebraska and of course I am considering local schools such as Nebraska Medicine (UNMC), Clarkson or Methodist in Omaha for my RN TO BSN. However, I am wondering what, if any, benefi...

Recently a local hospital chain that is probably the biggest in my city was offering a 10k sign on bonus plus 10k tuition reimbursement for a days OR position. I had an in to the company through an acquaintance, and got a phone interview, but did not...

Hello, I apologize for replying to your question with another question, but your post made me curious as to where you enjoyed traveling the best of the places you have been so far?

Salexandra, on a side topic, how the heck did you ever find a job that offered no weekends???? This is what I lay awake at night praying for haha.... On the main topic I am sorry that I cannot give you any advice as I myself am a brand new nurse, ne...

Hello, I am an ADN considering going back for RN - MSN. The college near me has 3 choices of RN to MSN. They are Executive, Educator, and Informatics. I don't feel like I would be interested in the first two, but informatics sounded somewhat interes...

I would agree with calico in that if it is indeed something you are being charged with in terms of committing a crime you would need a lawyer. Since I am not a lawyer I cannot give legal advise, but I will tell you what I think in regards to my past ...

I am sure that I am in the minority in thinking here, but hear me out...I think part of what COULD make it better is going to straight 8 hour shifts and here is why. Doing 12s you eat when you can anyway and dont usually or sometimes ever get a sche...

Hello all, I just have a quick question regarding travel nursing. I have done some research on it and I believe I have found the answer, but some websites with the answer have a lot of grey area, so I wanted to ask people who have actual experience a...

I am trying to find out where I go or who I call in regards to my student loan repayment if I need to call them to tell them I work for a non-profit organization as a nurse. This is is the state of Nebraska and I have both subsidized and unsubsidized...

It is Clarkson College, as well as Methodist in Omaha Nebraska. In response to your first post, I had a question for you. Before entering your schooling for your computer degree did you know a lot about computers? I ask because I actually was conside...

Yeah it was just the loan forgiveness that I was unsure of. My very first loan repayment came out this month, so the schedule and amount is already set up. After I graduated several months ago I had a lot of people telling me that "all you do is go t...

That brings up an interesting point. In other countries such as Australia, UK, Asia, Europe, is this also becoming more of an issue, is it worldwide? Or is it primarily more-so just here in the USA in terms of this continued OVERLY PC concept?

Anyone tried the Medical Spanish? That could come in very useful if it actually works and is helpful.

If worst comes to worst there are always jobs out there that are FAR from a bedside job especially if you have bedside experience. Just for one example there are several companies in my medium sized city that have are group homes, each have about 3-6...

What is it about your job that you feel burned out on? Is it the running or stress or something different? I would say if you are that close to your MSN I would finish that because that would give you some different options, doing different things th...

I am a new nurse, graduated in May and got my license in July. I have been working at a small group home since I began and I am wanting to transition to a hospital floor job such as med/surg to get some acute care experience, skills, etc. I have been...

Yes, my cardiologist only prescribed propranolol, I don't know that he is convinced it is anxiety, but he ruled everything else out...so he basically just said you can either take propranolol, which doesn't help me in the least, or just deal with th...

Thank you everyone for your feedback, i appreciate it a lot.

During some tests I did yes, luckily never at a clinical site fortunately. I have had a couple a long time ago my current job, luckily since it is a small group home there were other workers there to cover for me and I did not have to have someone co...

Well, actually since you mention it I don't believe so. I have had the complete CBC/CMP workup, TSH, Testosterone, heart echo....vitamin D doesn't sound familiar unless they snuck it into one of those but I don't believe they did. I do know my CMP/CB...
