new grad RN programs in northern California

[lizzieengel]

Hi all,

I am graduating from an ADN program in Nevada in December. My fiance is currently working in San Francisco, and I have spent the last few months trying to research new grad programs in northern California.

I am starting to become very discouraged about finding a new grad program in this area. I know that California in general is hard to get a job as a new nurse, but I feel that I have included a large geographical area in my search and still have not come up with much!

Does anyone have any information about any 2014 new grad RN programs?? I would really appreciate some encouragement!!

Thanks in advance =)

Hi. I am in the same situation presently and wondering if you finally got a job in California. I will be graduating from a BSN program in December and already feeling frustrated on getting a residency program/job in the Bay area because of the competition. My fiance lives there and moving will be impossible if I don't get an offer there. Curious to know if you finally got a job in CA or had to stay in Nevada for some yrs of experience as that will be my second option, to stay in Pennsylvania for 1-2 yrs to gain some experience before relocating.

Hey there,

I am currently in an ADN program in the SF Bay Area, and I work at Valley Care Hospital in Pleasanton, which has recently been aquired by Standford. I know for a fact that we hire New Grads, and do not require a BSN as of now. Also, St. Rose in Hayward hires new grads and ADNs. There are hospitals here that don't require BSNs, you just have to really do your research. They might not be magnet hospitals or big names like Kaiser, but its a start :-) Good Luck!!

Do you know if Valley Care does a new grad program or would it be best to just search the hospital site for opportunities? My mother-in-law lives in Pleasanton and it would be GREAT to be closer to her. Any info you have would be very much appreciated!
