Topic: RE: OT - NCLEX-RN

I graduated on May 5 I took the NCLEX on June 7 I really didn't do alot of studying while I was waiting I was waiting to raise the money for the test. I hear the sooner you take it the better you are at remembering things. I also took the Kaplin review I really can't say it helped but I really cant say it didn't.

Hi Sunny! I am still a student so I don't have an answer for your study time question. I am curious about what part of Honduras you are going to. For 5 consecutive years I did summer mission trips to Copan Ruinas and Santa Barabara. I love it there and feel that Copan is my home away from home. Interestingly you don't need to be a licensed health care professional to medically treat people. Elizabeth

Hi Sue, Wow, I just read your message about job sharing. I've never heard of such thing, but I would love to discuss it more. I've got 27 +yrs experience, Level I trauma, PICC certified, ER director; and now I work as a House Supervisor in a 250 bed hosp in Texas. My email is [email protected] if you'd like to contact me.

Topic: OT - NCLEX-RN

I graduate in early December. I want to take a two week medical mission trip in January to Honduras. (I'm already a licensed LPN). I am just trying to get an idea how much study time I might need for the NCLEX and on average how long you waited after graduation to take the exam. Any helpful info would be appreciated. Thanks. luvitsunnyv

When I worked up there, I was under Indian Health Services, so I was covered under my Ohio license. If I were to work up there full time, the hospital pays for the Alaska license and subsidizes housing. Here is a link with some interesting information. They just updated this site not too long ago. It was neat to look at the pictures and recognize some faces! http://www.arcticslope.org/ Sue
