1. What are the options available after failing the Canadian RPN exam 3 times?

   M3BWN replied to NQual's topic in Canada

   I would be tempted to work as a health care aid for a while to make sure that health care is right for you. I imagine you'd be able to acquire a job with your PN training?

2. Whats RAH like to work at?

3. Whats RAH like to work at?

   It would be nice to be PM'd about this site to work at in Alberta!!! Just wondering if the staff are generally happy to be working here or not, and nice to new hires.... lol

4. Canada- BSN Summer Jobs

   M3BWN replied to htanis's topic in Canada

   I know some of the students who didn't finish the practical nursing program with me were able to work as care aides. But now that they have the BC Care aid registry (I don't remember what it is called), I don't know how it would work. So if your fi...

5. AHS casuals....

   M3BWN replied to M3BWN's topic in Canada

   Thanks again Joanna :)

6. AHS casuals....

   M3BWN replied to M3BWN's topic in Canada

   Thanks ladies :) I just remembered that I read somewhere that a person couldn't have two positions with AHS. Does this include having two casual positions in different hospitals/zones?

7. AHS casuals....

   M3BWN posted a topic in Canada

   If I just got my first casual job and haven't even orientated yet... would it be kicking myself if I went for another job interview at another hospital? After reading on here about the no seniority for casuals, and that casual staffing is pretty muc...

8. Jobs in AB?

   M3BWN replied to MissElizabeth's topic in Canada

   Would that just be the AHS website where you can log in and have new job posting notifications sent to your email?

9. Move to Northern BC

   M3BWN replied to Sandy82's topic in Canada

   Casuals really don't build seniority in Alberta? That kind of isn't nice... does that mean that it just depends on the scheduler as to who they call for shifts? When I was in BC, before the LPNs moved to bcnu we would accrue seniority as casuals. ...

10. Move to Northern BC

    M3BWN replied to Sandy82's topic in Canada

    I think you can port your seniority between the health authorities? Might be beneficial to try the move if you have a job offer, you could always move back to the city after a year or so if you really don't like it? I moved out to alberta after liv...

11. Unemployed and feel like whining?!

    M3BWN replied to M3BWN's topic in Canada

    Yes I hope so. I am very excited

12. Unemployed and feel like whining?!

    M3BWN replied to M3BWN's topic in Canada

    After too many interviews, and too many months of searching I now have a casual job at a hospital Yay!!!! But I'd like to think that this job search has made me more willing to take all the weekends and nights I am offered lol. (In reality thoug...

13. Obtaining an RN job in a city in Canada directly after graduation

    M3BWN replied to jgibeault's topic in Canada

    Yeah, the idea of casual work is crazy. The position is just casual, only when someone calls in sick, or has a leave from their regular position. I don't have much experience being a casual in Alberta, but in BC I usually worked more than full time...

14. Unemployed and feel like whining?!

    M3BWN replied to M3BWN's topic in Canada

    Its too bad that some casuals won't work all shifts. I like that being casual allows a person to have the odd day off for special events with their families and not have to worry about getting time off approved by HR... but I also found that when I ...

15. Unemployed and feel like whining?!

    M3BWN replied to M3BWN's topic in Canada

    I have another interview coming up, hopefully it's far enough out of the city that I'll have a chance!!! Now, when they ask you if you want full time or part time what are they looking for? (And I have only ever been interviewed for casual posting...
