What do you consider your anniversary date?

In other words, when is your first year over? Is it the day of graduating from nursing school? Is it the day you got your license? Is it the day you started your job after graduation? I'd like to know because I can't wait for it! If its the date of graduation, that'll be December 13th. If its the day I got my license, that would be Feb 6th. If its the day I started my job, that would be December 30th. Whatever day it is, it can't come soon enough! LOL!

He, he! Just think, someday you will be trying to remember what each of these days was like and will be having a hard time to recall what the date was!:p

That's very true!!! I had to look up the license date as it is.:)

Memory loss occurs early and will be hastened by a career in nursing!:lol2:

I would consider it the date I started working.

I have legally been a nurse since July 11, 2008.

I have been working as a nurse since July 14, 2008

I have been working as a nurse for 104 days and have 261 days left until my 1 yr anniversary date.

I consider my first day as an LPN my offical "start" date toward that 1 yr mark. But since my licensing date and my first day working are only 3 days apart it really doesn't matter..

I would say you should start the countdown from the first day you start a job working as a nurse.

If you did it from your license date, you could really not work at all as a nurse, have no experience, and say you've been a nurse for say a year :)

I got my license a few months before I started working (military fam the, moved a lot) so the date I started working is my date.

Well I graduated in May of 2007, Got my license in Dec 07, and started my job here in April 08. I consider that my "aniversary" because that is when I actually started "being" a nurse.

Even though I am a new RN, I consider my anniversary date the day I started working as an LPN.
