  1. It's comforting to me to read that it's possible to make a living from per diem ? There is less security but the flexibility that comes with it is very attractive. I'm hoping to have several PRNs a...
  2. Thank you. My current role focuses on a single specialty and the opportunity for growth is limited. I was hoping to broaden my horizon by learning other specialties. Thank you for your comment
  3. Fellow Nurses, I became a RN a year ago. I did impatient nursing for 6 months before quitting because my mental health suffered tremendously. Currently I'm doing outpatient nursing at an...
  4. Ooh I just got my schedule. The person who sends the email will be someone from your unit, so it depends on them when to send the info
  5. I haven't received mine either and I did my POPA before your date ?. There's that welcoming thing on the 22nd so if I haven't received mine by then I'll just ask them in
  6. It should be fine, especially if your results were always negative. My case is a bit more complicate but I had no issues during my appointment. I think if you did needed something (2nd step or...
  7. Congrats x1000! ? I'm so happy for

  11. Don’t quote me on this but I think the ratio for MS is 1:3-4 (but most often 3 from what I read). With Mayo’s low ratio it’ll be safer for both patient and nurses. Probably lowers the chances of...
  12. Yea sure ? oh, but know that Mayo (or at least my department) doesn’t have CNA’s and only 1-2 PCT’s covering multiple units in one floor. However the nurse:patient ratios are low, so it’s...
  13. I worked there for the Summer externship. I've never worked in any hospital setting before so I can't compare it, but I really enjoyed the experience ? One thing that stood out to me was...
  14. Good luck on your HESI and NCLEX! If you haven’t reserved a day and place for your NCLEX, please do so quick as they fill up fast. I reserved a testing spot and then made a study schedule...
  15. My first and second choice was ER and PCU. I was surprised to see that there was no ER or ICU in the options list that they showed me during the 2nd interview. Especially because during their...
