  1. Flu Shot Questions

    I have few questions on flu shots: 1) Does the flu shot protect a person 100% from the specific strains? Is it impossible to get the H1n1, flu, etc after receiving the flu shot, or are their symptoms just less if they do get the flu? 2) Do you recomm...
  2. Hi all! One of my Friends stated when giving an I'm injection to a patient- the arm seemed to pulsate once. (an area of the skin depressed in for a second). Why does this happen? Also I'm starting flu clinics tomorrow. I don't shoot the needle in lik...
  3. Can hospitals find out my work history? If I leave off a job from my resume, is there any way they can find out?
  4. Can hospitals find out where I've worked in the past? I thought the only way they can find out is through a credit report. Do they really run credit reports to find out?
  5. can hospitals or other employers find out where you have worked in the past through background checks?
  6. public health or acute care nursing

    public health pays about 40 an hour here while hospitals pay around 50
  7. public health or acute care nursing

  8. Hey all, I wanted to see what you all think. Would you all rather work in acute care with higher pay but a lot more stressful, or public health nursing with a bit less of a pay but no weekends, night shifts and all the holidays are off! Which is more...

  10. It's at a psych hospital. It doesn't have any other units other than psych. & it Doesn't have other hospitals like kaiser throughout the country/state. What would you do in this case?
  11. NICU NEW GRAD NURSE

    Hi all, Do you guys feel it would be tough for a new grad to start in NICU? I've only spent one day in a NICU and have no experience with it. Would you recommend new grads going into this floor straight? What is it like? I've heard and clearly could...
  12. Hi all, I have a question. I am a new grad. It is so tough getting a job as a new grad right now. New grad programs have 1000 people applying and only 15 or so get in. My dream is to work in post partum. Although it seems difficult to get into post p...
  13. Thanks AWSMFUN! I didn't realized I wrote Nursing Program instead of hospital new grad program. My bad. Unfortunately I can't edit the title, but hopefully readers got the idea by reading the entire post. Thanks though!
  14. Oh and I am thankful that I even got an interview because it must have meant my resume/application stood out from the 900+ resumes/apps
  15. Thanks for the replies so far! By the way- not sure if I mentioned, but I did get interviewed which is why I'm so curious. I can always apply to the next program again and be more prepared. It was my first RN interview. I get really nervous w/ interv...
