A friend's dtr is graduating with an ADN in the spring. Her wish is to work in the ER at Metro. Does anyone know if they hire new grads there?

They hire new grads but they are shying away from ADNs and going to BSNs.
Will they accept ADNs that are working on their BSN (she intends to start her studies as soon as she graduates)
Thanks for the reply!!
Im not sure. If she had some years of experience maybe. I just know when I had clinicals there they came and talked to us and they said they will be moving to BSN's only.
Thanks!

Due to the high acuity of patients in their ER they do not generally accept new grads period unless they have previous paramedic experience. Metro is BSNs only.

You need a nursing base to work in metro ER and a BSN.

Most ERs won't hire new grads. It's a big learning curve even for floor nurses who come to ER. Honestly, most new grads end up quitting because of the heavy of load, acuity of patients, and limited knowledge base.

I'm pretty sure Metro only hires BSN prepared RNs.
