New grad training programs

U.S.A. Massachusetts

Published

I am a nursing student in Florida and want to move back home to Mass upon graduation. I am interested in new grad training programs but I am not sure how to search for hospitals that offer new grad training programs. I am also concerned about job hunting. I will be graduating in May 2009 with an associates degree in nursing and I'm finding many hospitals require a BSN to work?? Any thoughts, ideas, information??

Thanks for any information.:wink2:

Here's a document I found on BWH's website that answers FAQ's regarding their hiring practices- especially as far as new grads are concerned. Hope this helps:

The job market in MA, NH, and RI is very difficult to break into. almost every hospital is in a hiring freeze. I know alot of people who have honors degrees, etc who can't find work at all. A lot of them are staying in the jobs they have and hoping things will get better.
