Re: Nursing home experience for HH?
I think it also depends on the type of facility where you get your experience. My first job out of nursing school was as the shift supervisor of a 118-bed SNF with a sub-acute wing. I was responsible for everything that went on during my shift, as well as a team of sub-acute patients--IVs, respiratory treatments, frequent assessments, etc. If your experience shows a good mix of skills, plus the ability to work independently, then I would think it's good experience for a home health nurse. Good luck!
