Good luck on the new house.  When did you start ICU? I have toyed with the idea, but not quite ready for it yet.  I am still in womens services.  Med/Surg tele. and with be tele certified and chemo certified shortly.  I love it but they are short staffed and I have had to relief charge a couple of times and it scares me to death.  I think you are so smart to continue with school.  I wish I would have just kept going, now I think it will really be  a struggle to go back.  My work does not offer part-time and until they do, there is no way I can throw school on top of work.  Maybe next year when we move back.  I still hope to get my masters some day.  It is so good to hear everyone is doing well and enjoying there jobs, it is still amazing that we are done and working nurses.  And we started Ameritech off with a bang thats for sure.  I think having hard working nurses to start with allows the next classes more job opportunities.  Anyways the best thing about Vegas is the unions, I am not a member but they keep salaries up with great yearly raises.  We have a few nurses who make around $42.00 and with the offered overtime and incentives they can make $80 an hour.  It is sickening thats for sure, but hey if you ever want a change you can contract as a traveler for 13weeks make a ton of money and go partying at night.   Good luck with everything and keep in touch&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2041812097138099049-503070796092059155?l=ameritechsbest.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ameritechsbest.blogspot.com/feeds/503070796092059155/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2041812097138099049&amp;postID=503070796092059155' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2041812097138099049/posts/default/503070796092059155'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2041812097138099049/posts/default/503070796092059155'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ameritechsbest.blogspot.com/2008/08/hey-jake-i-am-glad-you-are-doing-great.html' title=''/><author><name>Paula</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08817967295155628681</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2041812097138099049.post-8698137069725745367</id><published>2008-07-03T13:38:00.003-06:00</published><updated>2008-07-03T13:52:30.894-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Good to hear from Everyone!</title><content type='html'>Paula I am glad they finally excepted you down south! I was getting a bit worried that you might have taken up pole dancing or some other exotic profession. J/k. Well I am glad that everybody is doing so well. I little bit about me since the last time we chatted. I am still doing my BSN through BYU-I on line. I want to shoot my brains out because it is so much busy work and paper after paper, but don't let that deter any of you from going on. I am glad I choose to keep going, it will all be worth it in the end right? (at least that is what I keep telling myself) I am working in the ICU at TRH in Orem and I love it. I am toying with the idea of applying to CRNA school next year. Yeah I know you are all thinking typical male nurse, what a dork! I want to go on to get a MSN before I choose to never go back. My son Noah will be turning two in august crazy huh! Enjoy the picture of us hiking. My wife and I put an offer on a home in Spanish Fork so we are crossing our fingers. Well I hope everybody is doing well. take care until next time.&lt;br /&gt;Jake Hunsaker&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_FwLxTZl_WZw/SG0thBrr1pI/AAAAAAAAADA/nOxZNxfJ-_s/s1600-h/DSC00109.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_FwLxTZl_WZw/SG0thBrr1pI/AAAAAAAAADA/nOxZNxfJ-_s/s320/DSC00109.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5218877588602869394" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_FwLxTZl_WZw/SG0thpZo5tI/AAAAAAAAADI/2Z2Ipcy0veY/s1600-h/DSC00115.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_FwLxTZl_WZw/SG0thpZo5tI/AAAAAAAAADI/2Z2Ipcy0veY/s320/DSC00115.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5218877599264597714" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2041812097138099049-8698137069725745367?l=ameritechsbest.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ameritechsbest.blogspot.com/feeds/8698137069725745367/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2041812097138099049&amp;postID=8698137069725745367' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2041812097138099049/posts/default/8698137069725745367'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2041812097138099049/posts/default/8698137069725745367'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ameritechsbest.blogspot.com/2008/07/good-to-hear-from-everyone.html' title='Good to hear from Everyone!'/><author><name>Jake</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05204272832964848358</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp2.blogger.com/_FwLxTZl_WZw/SG0thBrr1pI/AAAAAAAAADA/nOxZNxfJ-_s/s72-c/DSC00109.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2041812097138099049.post-1535679741822405919</id><published>2008-07-01T14:53:00.002-06:00</published><updated>2008-07-01T14:58:01.699-06:00</updated><title type='text'>.update.</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;well hello everyone!  i thought i'd just drop in and see what everyone is doing now??  anyone doing something fun and exciting? i'm still just here in the PACU at intermountain medical center (also known as the death star).  my job is pretty sweet because i work 3 twelves and no nights or weekends.  i love the people i work with and am learning tons and tons.  i have seen kristy bentley a few times, she works in the neuro icu.  tell us what you're up to!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana;"&gt;ashley owens&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2041812097138099049-1535679741822405919?l=ameritechsbest.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ameritechsbest.blogspot.com/feeds/1535679741822405919/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2041812097138099049&amp;postID=1535679741822405919' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2041812097138099049/posts/default/1535679741822405919'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2041812097138099049/posts/default/1535679741822405919'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ameritechsbest.blogspot.com/2008/07/update.html' title='.update.'/><author><name>{owens}</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17079933747501479457</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2041812097138099049.post-839164099005029229</id><published>2008-06-14T00:06:00.002-06:00</published><updated>2008-06-14T00:20:26.966-06:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Hey everyone, my license officially transferred to Nevada.  yippee!!

We are still in LA.  Christine is off ECMO and should be off the ventilator in a few hours.  She is responding and can recognize me and Randy.  She is answering yes and no questions and she is very mad that she can't talk.  They are having to keep her restraints right now because she keeps trying to pull out her vent.  I can't really blame her.  Right now our problem is, our insurance won't approve transfering back to Utah.  So she is going to surgery for a pacemaker/defibulator on Monday morning and then hopefully discharge on wednesday.  Then we'll either fly or drive her home ourselves.  Thank you for all of your thoughts and prayers.  Kristy or Lupita can you please update David at work and let him know I'll call when I know we're coming home?

Sarah and her family needs all the love, prayers and support that we can give them.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;span class="text12" id="msg_txt"&gt;Dear Friends, Early Thursday morning our oldest daughter Christine went into cardiac and then respiritory arrest.  I was able to preform CPR within one minute and continued until Paramedics arrived.  She is currently being cared for at Rady's Childrens Hospital in San Diego California as we were on a family vacation.  She is currently in stable but critical condition.  She is on a ventilator, ECMO, heavily sedated, and has just been started on TPN.  The current plan is that she will be transfered to UCLA Medical Center tomorrow (Sat.) as they have the ability to better wean her from ECMO and possibly place her on an LVAD.  This would make it easier to transport her home to Primary's.  There are many people praying for our little girl and am asking for you to join us.  For those of you who are LDS, our ward is starting a fast for Christine Sunday night at 8:00 if you are interested in joining us in that fast.  Please let other friends know.  I am only contacting people whose email addresses I have with me.  Please pray for my family.

Good luck Jana, just keep trying, don't give up. I'm working in dialysis as before, but as a nurse now!!! and I just wanted to let you know or if you could pass it along to other nurses, or future nurses, that we are VERY short staffed in the dialysis field. The company I work for, has 3 facilities right now, and is to open 3  more in May, there are three in the valley, 1 will be in bountiful, 1 in layton, and 1 in ogden. But we can't find any nurses, we have posted in the want ads and other online stuff for months, but no luck. So if anybody's still looking for a job, or wants a change it's an awesome field I promise. we do 3 12's, pay starts at $21, (they might negotiate at this point), health, dental, 401k, blah, blah, blah! all of that stuff too. If you get into it, later on you could do acutes which is at the hospital, or work in the home department, which is kinda really easy for the most part.  Anyway...let me know if anyone's interested or know of anyone.

Pretty amazing how things work themselves out. Originally they had denied me and then on Monday I got an eceptance letter from them saying that they opened more sections to there online BSN program and that I could start this Jan. if I wanted.( it is good to know that Ameritech is not the the only crazy nursing school out there). I'm glad to here that so many of you have decided  to come and work c me at TRH. It is a great place to work. Some news about Amertiech if you have not all ready heard. Libby has since moved on and has went back to Virgina. I hope that place does not fall apart and hopefully Libby whip cracking took its toll and they are doing what they are ought to. It was fun I had to go and get some documents from Ameritech and see all the  SMURFS  that are still there studying and to realize that I am an RN and graduated, I had to pinch myself. FYI for all those that are going to BYU-I, I signed up for a STATS class through New century learning, what is formerly know as the easiest math ever. It only takes 8 weeks to finish and they have a money back policy if you don't pass. It is an actual class that they hold and it is through BYU independent study. It starts Jan 8. If you want to call me about it fell free (227-4458). The only down fall is that it i about $1,000, but if you suck at math like me it might be worth it. The class sizes are small they only admit 8 students at a time. Classes are T, THUR from 3-5pm. Merry Christmas to everybody and I hope you all have a great holiday season&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2041812097138099049-5336866023860950728?l=ameritechsbest.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ameritechsbest.blogspot.com/feeds/5336866023860950728/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2041812097138099049&amp;postID=5336866023860950728' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2041812097138099049/posts/default/5336866023860950728'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2041812097138099049/posts/default/5336866023860950728'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ameritechsbest.blogspot.com/2007/12/merry-christmas-all.html' title='Merry Christmas To All'/><author><name>Jake</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05204272832964848358</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2041812097138099049.post-7864550939716047232</id><published>2007-12-13T00:50:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-12-13T00:55:28.761-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>congrats to all who have passed. i am so very proud of you!!! i would like to start the re-takers club. i do get to re-take my test at the end of january. who knew i needed to be an expert at Schizophrenia to pass the NCLEX? :) but thank you mary for the time advice. i did take longer on this test than the last one cause i second guessed all of my answers. if anyone has any great words of wisdom they are greatly appreciated!!!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2041812097138099049-7864550939716047232?l=ameritechsbest.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ameritechsbest.blogspot.com/feeds/7864550939716047232/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2041812097138099049&amp;postID=7864550939716047232' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2041812097138099049/posts/default/7864550939716047232'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2041812097138099049/posts/default/7864550939716047232'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ameritechsbest.blogspot.com/2007/12/congrats-to-all-who-have-passed.html' title=''/><author><name>jana</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03424122679954576153</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2041812097138099049.post-4437740895480228296</id><published>2007-12-12T19:34:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-12-12T20:32:20.094-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Have you passed?</title><content type='html'>I hope all is going well for everyone.

She said one of her instructors just became one of the NCLEX exam writers.  This instructor told the students something interesting that she had found out about the NCLEX.  Because the test is computer adapted to each test taker that there are a lot of factors that determine how difficult or easy your next question might be.  She said one of those factors is the amount of time you take to answer the question.  The longer you take to answer the question, the computer figures you don't know the answer and are just guessing, even if you eventually answer correctly.  I guess the take home message is. . .don't spend too much time reading and re-reading the questions, just use your test strategy to choose the most correct answer and move on.  Just thought you all might want to know that.  By the way, I passed my NCLEX a couple of weeks ago!  It was the best Christmas present I could have received!

IM GLAD THAT SO MANY OF YOU HAVE PASSED AND I CONGRATULATE ALL OF YOU THUS FAR AND TO THOSE OF YOU STILL STUDYING WORK HARD AND GOOD LUCK YOU WILL PASS, TAKE ME AS AN EXAMPLE, IF I CAN PASS EVERYONE CAN PASS.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2041812097138099049-7768485112184998460?l=ameritechsbest.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ameritechsbest.blogspot.com/feeds/7768485112184998460/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2041812097138099049&amp;postID=7768485112184998460' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2041812097138099049/posts/default/7768485112184998460'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2041812097138099049/posts/default/7768485112184998460'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ameritechsbest.blogspot.com/2007/11/lucky-me.html' title='LUCKY ME!!!!'/><author><name>Jake</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05204272832964848358</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2041812097138099049.post-9008581039373629357</id><published>2007-11-22T09:12:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-11-22T09:16:03.301-07:00</updated><title type='text'>..Oh, I'm Thankful..</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="center"&gt;Well everyone..I am extremely &lt;strong&gt;thankful&lt;/strong&gt; today for I too,  passed the NCLEX.
