Recently was hired as a hospice nurse, after three days on the job realized it was not for me. I truly loved the residents but there were many things I was not told during the interview. As a hospice nurse for this company we have residents in different nursing homes. The nursing home I oriented at I really liked. The nurses seemed happy and they had a good nurse to resident ratio. While at this facility I got to know some of the staff. Well, here is my dilemma. I really liked this nursing facility and would like to work for them. However, I feel so awkward applying there. I know some of the staff would recognize me. How do I explain to the person interviewing me if they find out I only worked for this hospice company for three days. They probably would think I wouldn't stay with them long. What should I do?
The hospice company I worked for contracts with different nursing homes. I was not employed in any way by this nursing home. Didn't want to confuse anyone.
