It was mostly support staff that were cut.
The hospital closed their special program that assisted hospital staff into getting into local RN Program since there isnt as many openings for RNs. There are students that have graduated from local programs that cant find jobs and the hospital WAS hiring about a 100 New Grads but that is no longer the case.
You can still apply who knows what will happen!
I work for Community Regional. It's a level 1 Trauma and a teaching hospital. Very busy! They do not have a hiring freeze. I know this because a friend of mine was recently hired on as a RN on one of the cardiac units. One of the recruiters told her that they still have RN openings and are still hiring. There were some layoffs, but clinical staff was virtually untouched. You should be safe to apply...just not sure which units will take another new grad. You can always call HR. Good luck!! :)
Which unit are you in lil?
