job bouncing freind

while going through nursing school, I becaomes freinds witha gal who was quite smart- in fact I think she typically got in the high 90% for tests and grades for class work. During clinicals, she would have several questions on the hands on aspect of things- maybe bit more then for a typical student.

Graduation was over a year ago. Finding a job took slightly longer then for the rest of us. Since then I think she has gone through about 4 jobs. Once she was let go after a state inspection and found some issues with the place inculding some holes in her charting. the others seemed normal but on a temp basis. her current postion she says that she was hired to fill in for a person but now she is being replaced by the peson she replaced. the person had been out supposly for a 6 month time for a hip on the job injury.

She is asking alot of questions and some of them are for referances and job leads. I haven't seen her work since we were in clinicals but I am not sure of what to think.

has any one else had a hard time with jobs in this ecomeny or seen alot of changes in staff?what about thoughts on job transitions?
