It seems nurses are working more and more these days. Instead of hiring they just give you more hours.

Do you think you spend too much time at work? On average, how many hours do you work per week?

Ok .......sooooo....this just shows us that I think that hospitals are under staffed...and it is time to bring in new grads! I think new grads are definitely under estimated . We haven't had time to create any " bad habits". Our knowledge is fresh out of school...and we have motivation to learn, and the drive to get started . It's sad to me that it is so tough to get out there for us!

*** My hospital is understaffed. I would love to see a bunch of bright eyed, ready to learn new grads hired. However it is expensive to train them, much more so now than in the past. I would also like to see nursing students demand a better nursing education from their nursing school. That would reduce the cost of training them. I don't know if it would mean more would get hired but it wouldn't hurt.
