Hello all,
I graduated from nursing school April 4, 2014 one of the happiest days of my life . All the blood , sweat and tears from school were finally over :) . I decided to take a break after school and catch up on some much needed sleep! I decided in two months id start studying for the Nclex and just take it easy in the mean time.
June 2014 I was hit head on by a drunk driver and my life was turned upside down, I was in so much pain , taking pain medications daily, going to physical therapy as much as it hurt me to put nursing to the side, my body needed to heal. I kept beating myself up for taking a break and not just taking the Nclex right away like my school had suggested.
It took months for me to get back on my feet and still to this day I am not completely healed but January 2015 I brought a Saunders Nclex review book and boy was there a lot I needed to review! I felt lost BUT with tons of studying(YouTube videos, books, etc.) and most IMPORTANTLY praying I brought myself to register for Nclex and took it TODAY! I pray I pass it would be such a great outcome for such a crappy year.
Of course try to take the Nclex in a timely manner but if for WHATEVER reason you find yourself months behind ( year in my case) DONT BEAT YOURSELF UP! Things happen! All we can do is try and if we fail WE TRY AGAIN! Thanks for reading wish me luck!
Ps: I cant help but to look up VN jobs and was wondering any ideas of good places to work as a first time job? Thanks
