Need advice

No offense, but instead of trying to figure out how to get your foot in another door you should be acknowledging what you did wrong and working toward correcting those issues. Granted, your post is short and lacking in detail, but there doesn't seem to be much personal accountability coming through on your end.

We'll need a lot more information to be able to give you any meaningful advice. For example, it sounds from your post that you were fired because of making a series of mistakes over a long period of time. Is that the case? If so, that's very different from being fired for 1 error.

One book I can recommend is: Building and Managing a Career in Nursing: Strategies for Advancing Your Career editied by Terry W. Miller and published by Sigma Theta Tau. It includes sections on repairing your image after it has been tarnished. You might want to purchase that book or better yet, get it from your local library for minimal cost. They probably don't have it, but could order it through interlibrary loan.

No, it's not impossible. I was terminated May 10 and I start my new job next Monday. I was interviewed a week after I was fired and the new employer liked me. The delay came from getting paperwork done, like references and physical assessments, etc.
