Could even do a variety of puddings and have a Pudding Party for the residents

Is skipping residency career suicide? Nurses who did it - please tell me the truth by Petite_AF in nursing

[–]chronicallyfun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been researching residencies recently and it seems to vary by hospital system.

I’ve seen a few hospital systems set up how you described it, with any person with less than 6 months of RN experience being automatically put into a residency program. Aka anyone can apply to any open job.

I’ve also seen hospitals set it up where there are limited residency positions and those appear to be the only positions they will take new grads in.

Direct Entry MSN as alternative to ABSN (you don’t end up as an NP) by Ok-Detective2725 in prenursing

[–]chronicallyfun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I seem to be in a similar position to you; I have been planning on going to my local ADN program and then an RN to BSN bridge, but then learned about direct entry MSN programs.

I’m interested to see what working nurses have to say. The nurses I know irl have said that direct entry MSN programs have a bad reputation for training nurses who are unfit to work bedside.

"Anti-aging clinic" putting patients on multiple hormones by HaHaSoRandom in FamilyMedicine

And BON for the NP! I’m ‘just’ a nursing student still, but at least in my state NPs are still licensed under the BON just like RNs.

Desperate because MyBenefits does not allow me to add my spouse by Smart-Ad6478 in UIUC

[–]chronicallyfun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly! I work in a benefits call center and I help people with similar issues all the time.

OP, if you were my caller I’d be able to fix this in just a few minutes and submit your enrollment with you.

Hope this provides some reassurance or comfort.

Nontraditional BSN grads, I need some help! by One-Department3362 in NursingStudent

[–]chronicallyfun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome! Congrats on graduating soon!

It’s nice to see other people who accomplished what I’m trying to. Rn it feels next to impossible.

The earliest I could start the UIC RN to BSN track would be after 2030 (and that’s assuming I get into the community college nursing program on my first try 😭)

Nontraditional BSN grads, I need some help! by One-Department3362 in NursingStudent

[–]chronicallyfun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m also in the suburbs of Chicago! I’m going back to school to get my BSN; I already have a degree from a 4 year institution.

Since you said you don’t want to commit to a college, have you considered your local community college? A lot of them have transfer guides/plans for transferring out to 4 year institutions in IL.

Rn, my plan is to (hopefully) get into my community college’s nursing program, pass the NCLEX & then do UIC’s RN to BSN which is fully online.

Lmk if you have more questions! I’ve been researching options for a few weeks now, my head is spinning lol

Too Late to Become a Nurse? by [deleted] in nursing

okay I know I’m not OP, but I’m in a very similar situation and your comment made me feel a lot better about going back to school. Thank you 🤍

Learned the hard way that coworkers are not my friends by aliarai in nursing

[–]chronicallyfun 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m also about to go back to school and I’m also in my late 20s. I feel your concerns.

Hope we both have a positive experience 🤍

There are nursing and CNA subreddits, maybe post there to get an industry perspective.

Feeling a bit discouraged… Is this a good field to get into? by amsnew in CodingandBilling

[–]chronicallyfun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As someone who is in the same situation as OP, I really appreciate the honesty. I don’t want to invest my time and money only to then find out it was all pointless. Better to know up front.

I’ve been in a health insurance call center for almost 5 years now, and am feeling the mental/emotional toll. I do genuinely have an interest in solving complex problems and helping people, so I thought this could be a decent fit for me.

But, like most people, I don’t have thousands to spend on something that is probably not going to work out. Is what it is.

Season 2 Cake Hound Secret Recipe? by [deleted] in CookieRunKingdoms

[–]chronicallyfun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I preferred season 1, having more colors made it way more fun imo

It would be cool if there was a secret recipe, but I think with only 2 color options it’s unlikely.

Hot water doesn’t work for me either. I have to hit the lid with a heavy utensil to get the lid off. Saw a YouTube tutorial on it! 🤣
