Are RN's only limited to LTC or hospital jobs?

Published

can you have an rn degree and only work in hospitals or LTC facilities? can you not find work anywhere else? I know people say that new grads cant find a job but can anyone find a job anywhere regardless of job type or occupation

There are clinic positions & case management positions in Public Health. Alot of those positions are ran by the county government. Here in California, alot of the county's are in "hiring freezes", so I'm not sure of the availablity of those. But something to look into if you are interested in positions outside of the hospital.

Ooooh, lol. Sorry I misunderstood your post. But yeah, I know what you mean. Jobs are hard to come by, whether it be nursing or anything else.
