  1. The LTC I work in has more subacute/acute beds than LTC. That is the better side to transition to hospital, IMHO. It is in Jacksonville and we are hiring.... West Jax Health and Rehab.
  2. Hi,
    I have been sending out resumes w/o success. I've applied with a few HHC agencies, the prisons, jails, corrections and pysch.....
    I haven't tried LTC. The hosptials are pretty much on lock-down when it comes to new grads. Need 1 year of experience.
    Thanks for the tip.

  3. Try southwest florida, Lee Memorial, hires new grads, has needs for nurses, check out the web site and rent is cheap on the west coast.

    thats sounds good. a lot of hospitals here in miami arent considering ltc or alf "acute care" so you still dont qualify as "experienced". so ridiculous i went to an open house today where they mentioned internship programs things may look up itll still be MONTHS before they launch tho i need to move out of my parents house!
    what open house did you attend?
  5. I agree, try Southwest Florida. I was hired, in naples, on a med/surg/tele unit and I had no acute care experience. Also HHA in the area are pretty desperate for nurses.
  6. Mount Sinai in South Florida has an open house every Tuesday for RN's. Be prepared for a possible onsite Interview. Do your research on the hospital & sound enthusiastic about starting....Sell yourself. Sometimes all the experience or certificates you aquire can't make up for a bad first impression. I've been applying for a RN position since April 2011...after submitting at least aprox 200??? applications I've recently got an awesome position. 1st interview and I got it!!! I let them know regardless of the outcome I would be applying again and they would be seeing my name again and again until I get through...and I meant it too!
  7. I am a newly licensed nurse and I have filled out several apps all over Florida.....literally all over Florida. I am in Jacksonville and they rarely hire new nurses so i realized to become employed I may have to move. I hope this helps someone. RN jobs for new grads are plentiful WE just have to go get them. Good Luck
