Hi everyone,
I'm interviewing Wednesday for a visiting nurse position with a reputable VNA. I'm a hospital nurse in PACU with experience in clinical teaching, critical care, and surgical/post-op care. I really need a change, as I feeling de-valued in my current position. I working on a MSN in Nursing Ed, and I was hoping to work part-time in HH. Any tips for the interview? Also, any new HH RN's willing to share their transitional experiences?
Hope to hear from you. I've enjoyed reading the HH threads.

Just a friendly reminder that if you feel devalued in your present position, please do not expect better treatment in hh.
Did you have bad experience? I know the grass isn't greener; I,m looking for different surroundings and was wondering if others had made the transition. Thanks for the input.

Nanny,
I didn't see this post early enough to give you any pointers but hope your interview went well.
I have been in HH for 25 yrs and as in all fields of nursing, there is good and bad. In my case, it's been a very positive experience and the good far outweighs any of the bad. So if you get the job, I hope you will like the change. I wish you the best!
Caliotter3, If HH has been so negative for you, why are you still in this field?
