5. two job opportunity at the same time

   MBrnbsnmha/ed replied to grcy's topic in Career Support

   Accept the job that presents itself and do not wait around for the other one because you never want to place all your eggs in one basket when it comes to employment. If both jobs want then and only then on you think of what you will do.

6. SCHEDULING/WEEKENDS

   MBrnbsnmha/ed replied to apriloglesby's topic in General Nursing

   That sounds very unfair to me also I am familiar with every other weekend point blank period. I once was at a facility where seniority was highly favored and I moved on from that organization.

7. To old to be hired anymore?

   MBrnbsnmha/ed replied to kathylorr's topic in General Nursing

   This current job market does not favor age, race, gender, years of experience nothing. It is down right unkind out here BUT do not get discouraged. I remember in 2006 and 07 when I could pick and choose what job I wanted, but not in this economy. Emp...

   Hello, First, congrats on landing a RN job. Secondly, when the facility extended you a offer letter what where the terms of the offer letter? Did it say critical care or med surge? Have you spoke to your manager or director about your concerns? Do th...

    MBrnbsnmha/ed replied to ccaiazza's topic in Florida

    I live in FL pretty its the bottom of the barrel for everything right now. Alot of economic hardships, hospitals do not have unions, recycle nurses because we are easily replaceable, and the pay will be much lower than NY. Try to accept a travel assi...

    MBrnbsnmha/ed replied to MECO28's topic in General Nursing

    Hello, Dont be to hard on your self. What struck out to me about your post was that sometimes when you are already at a facility and attempt to move up the clinical ladder there are factors that maybe be unforeseen that prevent you from moving up and...

13. On call staff having a difficult time

    MBrnbsnmha/ed replied to payang0722's topic in General Nursing

    Don't get nervous. Just check the patients chart for a physician order and follow up to see if the specimen was collected. Just say, "Let me check the chart to look into that for you." or the person asking the question could have checked. No biggie a...

    MBrnbsnmha/ed replied to Daisy_08's topic in General Nursing

    From one professional to another it is always wise to give notice because if you burn a bridge you never know if and when you may have to cross that same bridge again to survive. Just my two cents. However, no matter how bad things are appearing to b...
