   trumpetlove17 replied to BeesMama's topic in California

   Hi BeesMama. I'm wondering why you moved to L&D and how it's going. I work at LBM as well and am in the med surg float and TBH, I'm really not liking it. I'm thinking of switching to L&D for the next training. Any thoughts? Advice?

3. Day shift or Night shift

   trumpetlove17 replied to ADIDCRNStudent's topic in General Nursing

   I think Cygnus hit the nail on the head. It's just very different. I am a new grad and I started on day shift. While I do hate being busy CONSTANTLY and sometimes feel like I'm drowning, I really like being able to sleep like a normal person and I va...

   trumpetlove17 posted a topic in General Nursing

   I'm a new grad nurse in an acute care float pool. I know it's really hard in the beginning and it's only been a few months, but I'm really having a love/hate relationship. I love how much I'm learning and seeing the variety and I really enjoy taking ...

   trumpetlove17 replied to StillWaiting115's topic in General Nursing

   I am very sorry that you are unhappy with your situation. I think two things will help. 1. Keep things in perspective (being able to have a job, help people etc.). Also, think of 3 things you are grateful for everyday and focus on that instead of you...

   Can I ask you more about Providence and the new grad program? If you can private message me, I'd appreciate it! :)

9. Moving to Los Angeles, thoughts on best hospital to work for as an RN?

   trumpetlove17 replied to sherrisl's topic in California

   Hi Sherri, I'm a CA native and went to nursing school here. My best advice is to apply EVERYWHERE and I mean everywhere in the LA/OC area. It's true what everyone says-- this is probably one of the most competitive areas in the entire country. The go...
