1. Nurses who married a nurse?

   ebits replied to AubrieV's topic in General Nursing

   Does your hospital allow for you to work weekends only? I have some nurse friends who do this and their significant other (also nurse) works the weekday shifts. Depends on the hospital of course, but this one in particular allows it because so many ...

2. Are There Jobs for Inexperienced RNs Besides Floor Nursing?

   ebits replied to jack1971's topic in New Nurse

   My first job out of school was in case management with an insurance company. The pay wasn't as good as a floor nursing job but the hours were wonderful and it was stress free! Many of the nurses could work from home when they wanted. Because I wanted...

   ebits replied to AMAC8487's topic in California

   Hi AMAC! I too am relocating to San Diego without much experience. I've worked as a nurse for about a year but it's in more of an office setting (not acute) so I'm nervous about finding a job. I will be moving in 2 months and am just starting to appl...
