Need help finding a job at Hospital

Published

Specializes in none.

Hi everyone, I used to be a nursing student and was in a RN program for 3 semesters. However I had to leave because of some issues. I am trying to get back in. I am however looking for a job at a hospital, but as a student, I currently have no certifications. Also, some require to be actively in a nursing program, but I am not anymore at this moment. Are there are titles in the hospital that I can get a job as that will aid me in the nursing program? I want a job that will help me in my nursing career. I believe everything Ive seen such as the nursing assistant, CNA and etc all require certifications.

Thank you all for your help. Any information is appreciated.

If you have 3 nursing school semesters, you should be able to get your CNA (in Maryland, we're eligible to get CNA after our first semester). Check with your state board of nursing. Patient care tech is another job you could look at.

If you're just trying to get your foot in the door: patient transport, unit secretary, phlebotomy (assuming you have experience), patient care tech.
