I graduated in 2006, took the exam in december and got my license in february 2007. i passed the CGFNS in the same year and had a 4 months training in a 276-bed capacity tertiary hospital. After that i worked as a customer service representative coz i felt like it would help me prepare for my IELTS exam which i did pass with a total bond score of 7.5, (no rating of below 7 in any subtest). I also have a dialysis training certificate and IV therapy certificate.

For 1 year and 2 mos i had been nursing a grandmother who had a stroke. I did the following tasks:

*IV insertion

*catheter replacement

*O2 administration

*suctioning of secretions

*V/S monitoring

*medication administration

*NGT feeding

*NGT insertion

*maintaining good/proper hygiene

*ROM exercises

Im eager to find a job coz my aunt who's supporting my grandmother's needs is starting to get broke. I've sent a lot of applications to different agencies but it's either they accept my applications and make me wait for nothing or they tell me straightforward that they cannot accept me for i never worked as a staff nurse in a hospital for at least a year.

Does anybody here know any hospital that hires nurses with the qualifications similar to that of mine?...

i hope you'd get to read my post and take time to give any feedback.

thanks.
