How is it Looking for New Grads in LTAC's?

Published

I recently found out a wealth of information about LTAC's from this site (:heartbeat). I had never known what they were but after learning about them I've decided that I would like to (hopefully) start out in one. I dont graduate until June, but I'd like to start applying maybe in March or April.

It seems like an LTAC can give me the experience I need to be marketable just about anywhere as well as make me competent in dealing with complex patients.

So, do LTAC's hire new grads in TX?

Not any moreso than the hospitals at this time I am afraid, at least from my experience. I am a brand new GN and did my clinicals at a local LTAC. They were not interested in hiring any new grads despite giving glowing reports and having a strong, high opinion of us.

Aww that sucks.

I still have a few months before I start applying so I guess I'll just keep my eyes open in case something changes.
