Conversation Between Mahage and Lucky0220

Hi Mahage! I noticed that I never got back to you. Here is an update. I have been working on a med-surg floor for the last 2 months (they give a 3 month preceptorship) and I really love where I am working. I think med surg might be my place! I live in Louisville, Ky but am originally from Bklyn, NY. Heck of a change! In about 4 weeks, I will be on my own with 8 patients, 1 tech, unit secy and on the 3-11 shift. Hope you are doing well. Joanne

Hi Again! I think you have to post a visitor message on my profile site. I think maybe you sent it to yourself! lol

Hi Mahage! You know, I never got this message that I now a seeing on your profile. How did that happen???? Sorry about not responding. I live in Louisville, KY. PM me anytime, I am starting a new job on Monday. What are you up to? Joanne

I am about the same age as you (I'm 59) and just graduated in December. I started out in ED right out of school and lasted 2wks! I loved it, but evidently they didn't love me! Said I was just not getting it after only 5 shifts. After the shock, I am now hoping to hear on Monday if I got a job at another hospital on Med-Sj...they are waiting for background ck to come back, so it looks good. I want you to know that I really enjoy your posts and encouragement to those of us who might be struggling. Thanks, Jo
