Hello AN,
I graduated in May and passed my boards at the end of June. I have been applying online to multiple job postings with no progress. This past Sunday, in passing, I mentioned to a few of BFs friends that I was looking for a job. Turns out, someone in the group, that I met that day worked for a HH agency.
I had my resume/cover letter ready by Tuesday, walked in on Wednesday and practically got the job offered on the spot. Turns out that Spanish speaking HH nurses are in high demand in the Boston area.
Now this is my dilemma. Throughout nursing school, I had a feeling that HH was the way I wanted to go. Until I had my rotation at the CHildren's Hospital and I absolutely loved it, I also worked at an elementary school which I enjoyed very much. Then I new I wanted to work with kids. I don't care if it's in a bedside or community setting.
My question is, How hard would it be to get out of HH/Community nursing if I wanted to broaden my horizons?
To be honest, I believe that I will enjoy the HH very much. I always wanted to work with my patient within the community, but I don't want that to be my only option or loose my bedside skills which I really haven't learned since this would be my first job.
