Specializes in ICU, School Nurse, Med/Surg, Psych.

Long considered a recession-resistant, if not recession-proof, profession, nursing has become a competitive field in some areas of the country. Some hospitals are laying off workers or closing their doors, which eliminates nursing jobs. At the same time, more older nurses are postponing or even coming out of retirement because their savings have all but vanished or their spouses have lost their jobs. As a result, we are seeing a temporary increase in the ranks of nurses and a decline in nursing vacancies, which is making it harder for some unemployed nurses to find jobs.

Panhandle West Virginia, some jobs, depends on the specialty. ER and ICU always looking for people but they have cut backs on other floors.

Baltimore/DC not as abundant as they were a year ago when we were being recruited into specialties before graduation but definitely still plenty of good opportunities, imo.
