  1. From critical care to Mother/Baby Unit?

    Hello! I was wondering if anyone has made the leap from critical care to Mother/Baby Unit! Originally as a new grad I wanted to work in the Mother Baby Unit or Pediatrics. When I graduated from nursing school though, jobs were scarce and I took...
  2. Is anybody else tired of the nurse practitioner craze?

    I'm not very familiar with any family nurse practitioners, but I would think an NP would be very competent and comparable to that of an MD in a PCP position. An NP would be able to consider a patient's complaint, look at lab work and figure out what ...
  3. ICU RN in need of less physically demanding unit, PACU?

    I am an ICU nurse wondering if PACU would be a better option, too! Wondering if it is in any way less stressful, too?
  4. Ready to get out of LTC

    I would say leave on good terms, no matter what. You never know who you might run in to from this facility in the future. You could say an opportunity for you to gain experience in a certain specialty or area came about and you have accepted this pos...
  5. OMG! Why??!!

    I can't speak for rehab, but I know when I worked in a LTC unit as a CNA day shift was definitely crazy busy trying to get all of my residents up, washed, dresses, OOB, showered, etc. Evening shifts are busy, but it's just a different pace. I didn't ...
  6. I think there is a chance of being exposed to HIV in any field of nursing and any type of setting. I know the ER is a big place for people to be exposed because angry patients come in and purposely try to infect the staff.. They will try to spit on y...
  7. High priced nursing home

    I definitely feel you on this issue. I was a nursing assistant for 3 1/2 yrs while going to nursing school. I am a new nurse now, just passed NCLEX in Jan. Woo hoo! Being a nursing assistant is definitely a great way to prepare yourself to be a nurse...
  8. I am from Philadelphia and I can say the same thing is happening here. I graduated December 2010 and have put in tons and tons of applications at pretty much every hospital in the Philadelphia area, have made follow up calls to nurse recruiters, HR, ...
  9. Genesis nurse residency

    Does anyone know when the next nurse residency program starts?
  10. Philly Area LTCF's

    I'm wondering the same thing! I've applied to lots of LTC facilities that are listed on websites.. but I just wish I had a little more direction. If someone knew specifically a place hiring new grads, it would be great. Have my RN and BSN. Anyone hav...
  11. Graduate Nurses-- any luck on jobs?

    Hello! I know you wrote this about a year ago but I have a question.. I just graduated in Dec, took the boards on Jan 26th and got my RN license Jan 27, 2011. Since you were in the same situation last year... when applying in other states, did you ge...

  13. Horsham Clinic

    Hi, thank you for the info! I am going to call their main # and ask to be put through to HR. Is that what you did? Also, did you follow up and THEN get the interview or did they just call you back on their own? Thanks!
  14. Horsham Clinic

    Hi, I know you wrote this awhile ago, but I am applying to the Horsham clinic now. I was wondering if you ever got hired there and if so, do you like it? What can you tell me about it? Just curious!! Thanks!
