   RN123456789 replied to RN123456789's topic in NICU

   How would I do that? I did visit the web page and do not see any positions posted for NICU. The hospital is only about 45 minutes from my house. Do you know anything about pay etc. If they hire without experience, I guess it would benefit me to look ...

    The hours range from 8:10 to 2:30, or 8:40 to 3:00. I am not sure how they are going to pay yet. I'm hoping it is just for the months working, so I can get a better pay check. But, you do have to have a BSN in order to work for the school department....
