Telephone Nurse

Nurses Career Support

Hi-

I am a new grad (with a license!) looking for a job. Right now I have applied for several acute care jobs and am coming up dry as far as responses but I keep trying. Truthfully though with 2 children at home and a husband that travels, it would be better for me to not have a job like that until my youngest goes to school next year. Childcare will become an issue with no family around. I obviously want/ need to do something and am looking for alternatives in the mean time. I have heard of telephone nurses for triage or follow up purposes and have also heard that some will train. Of course though I can't find any information in my area for opportunities such as this. Des anyone have any insight or perhaps any advice on roads to pursue at this point?

Thank you!

Have you tried the Telephone Triage forum

No-thanks! This site is pretty big and I do no know my way around too well outside the student section. :)

If you get stuck there is always the site map which you can find in the yellow tool bar above on the right. It lists all forums :)t
