This has to be a common question :) I have wanted to get into LD for 10 years, out of necessity I ended up taking a RN position with hospice, years ago, then allowed my license to lapse due to burnout. I have recently reinstated my license and I have a decent job with an insurance company, however I have always had a passion for LD. But none of the hospitals in my area will hire without experience. How can I do this? I've left messages with nurse recruiters at hospitals and my calls are not returned. Would volunteering be a possibility? I'd consider a job as a unit sec to get my foot in the door but I'm not sure it would even matter.
Thank you..this is WHY I went into nursing.
