Re: Looking for job in Nashville area
Thanks, mmutk, for the advice! I would like to try my hand at an oupatient position, but my skills are 12+ years old, so wonder if I should work in acute care for awhile to get back up to speed. The refresher course I took ended up not having skills practice--we just talked through procedures. I would think I would orient pretty quickly. My biggest question now is what am I qualified for? My 14 years of working in the hospital included general surgical, ortho, burns, telemetry, critical care (burns, cardiac, and a variety of neuro, pulmonary, etc). I will be reworking my resume and setting up some interviews in the next week. The thought of home health appeals to me as well.
If anyone else has any advice for me, I'd love to hear it. I'm looking in the Brentwood, Nashville and Franklin areas (including Williamson Medical Center).
By the way, I'm enjoying the information and comraderie on this site!
