   I've been doing work in immunizations clinics hoping that would help. So far I've been told repeatedly that by 'experience' they mean 'hospital based experience'. It didn't seem like there was a point to work in a dr. office (where I wouldn't make en...

   Yes. Only applying for hospital positions. I have no desire to work in an office, clinic, home health or nursing homes. If that is the only kind of work I can get as a nurse I'll drop working on my BSN and pursue a different bachelor's and switch fie...

   I've worked doing flu shot clinics. No one will hire me in non-intern positions because I don't have any hospital based experience. And now they might be rejecting me because I have some out of hospital experience? I don't know what I'll do if I can'...

    moodyred01 replied to twopointohhh's topic in General Nursing

    You might want to pop over to the student forum. You'll find lots of info there! I think your lifestyle and the school you attend can influence your experience. It was amazingly time consuming but once I got used to that it didn't feel so time consum...

    Can an employer force you to be vaccinated or updated in order to remain employed? Even in states where there are medical, philosophical, and medical exemption options?

13. Are you required to be up to date on vaccinations?

    moodyred01 replied to moodyred01's topic in Ob/Gyn

    So are we required under our license? Or just some companies require it? I know there are tons of docs who don't keep up to date so I'm curious here. What if you are medically or religiously exempt? Don't they have to respect that?
