Finally after graduating in may, passing my nclex in june, working in 2 nursing homes(kinda miserable)... I got accepted into the nurse residency program in one of the bigger hospitals in my state! I am so excited especially because I will be able to be on orientation longer to gain experience, and take classes at the hospital to strengthen my skills! It almost seems to good to be true. And I can say that I got this myself, by gaining experience in the nursing homes, and spending countless hours prepping my apps and resume. Because a girl I know from nursing school that graduated with me really likes to brag about her full time ICU job, but its quite convenient to get that as a new grad if your grandma is the DON... It was just so discouraging listening to her talk about how great her job is.
Any ways I just had to get that off my chest! There is hope!
