Welcome back.  I'm Tracy.  I went to school for my RN and started in Med Surg.  Then I did Agency nursing and got lots of different types of nursing experience. I ended up in School nursing where they required that I obtain my BSN so I finished that in 2012 as well as my DESE license which is teaching (Dept of Elementary and Secondary Education).  They require the nurses to be DESE licensed but the teachers do not have to be CPR cert.  LOL.  Go figure.  I begged the superintendent to rethink that.  I told them there is going to be a tragedy.  In Feb. 2012, at 2:10pm, the Friday before Feb. Vacation one of our middle school students drowned in the swimming pool.  They FINALLY require the gym teachers to be CPR certified!!! 

 

Long story short, if you have any questions or need any help, don't hesitate to pm me.  Nursing school can be very hectic to say the least.  Good luck!  NP can be a great way to unwind.

Oh my that is such a shame tragedy has to strike before someone does something to create change!! 

Very interesting career story though and thank you for sharing (: I actually start my medsurge rotation this week so I'm ready to get my feet wet.

 

Thanks for the open door policy! I appreciate it!

My first account is long gone from maybe ten or so years ago but here I am now! I'm always back and forth between extremely active and extremely not even existing. 

 

I'm a nursing student, fitness buff wannabe, and nerdy enthusiast as I love everyones fandoms!

 

I always find myself creeping on the TDN forums so I thought, "ayyy why not?". I wish everyone a super fantastic day [:
