Will you be a licensed RN during this residency year? will you be taking full assignments on your own in the ICU? If so, I believe you can count this as experience. If not, then you can't. As I understand it, residency programs are a support system p...
Not really. That's why you need solid couple years experience and be comfortable with most types of patients, codes, all in a strange/new environment etc. Many times if they are short enough that they need a travel nurse, staffing ratios will not be...

Thanks Progressive that really helps... I'll start the application process early then in switching my RN license once I have a job offer and I get closer to graduation. Appreciate it!
