What areas are you looking for? Hospital work only? Or certain shifts? As a parent and wife, I know how you must be feeling. It's very difficult when you feel like you can't provide for your family. I'm a new grad and was recently hired into a new...
HopeNurse- Unfortunately I'm still new to using allnurses.com and cannot figure out how to send messages. I'd be happy to give you information regarding our new grad program... I know someone sent me a message through here, so if you know how to do ...
It has been my experience, as well, that LTC/SNFs actually pay the same, if not better, than some hospitals. I am a new grad (graduated in May 09) and am currently working in a SNF (Skilled nursing facility). If you are looking for that "perfect"...
Have you tried Shepart Pratt yet? A friend of mine (new grad) applied a few weeks ago and had an interview yesterday. She said there were a few other positions

I live in MD, I was quoted a job for 25.50/hour ($25/hour if in the Baltimore area), and was offered another job at 28.20 an hour to start, shortly after I will get bumped up to 29/hour, and on weekend evenings I get an extra 4+ an hour. These were b...
I am a new grad (Graduated in May, licensed since July) and recently found a position listed for a local NICU. I desparately want to work somewhere in the maternity field, L&D, Maternal/Newborn, or NICU so I'm very excited to have found a positi...

To be honest, I didn't really use the book. It did have a GREAT cheat sheet that you could tear out, for things that most people forget (had drugs and lab values and a couple of other things). I brought it with me to the test center and looked it o...

I used the Exam Cram book and CD. The CD was great for drilling questions, and it does have a simulated Exam mode that will cut you off after you have "passed" I did not complete all of the tests that it tells you to before taking the simulated exam...
