Have you tried LTC or psych?

Specializes in Psychiatric.

Try LTC or Psych, as Jules says. Some of the LTC facilities that turned me down as a new grad LPN seemed like they might be interested in new grad RNs. Psych doesn't seem as bad for new grads--it was a psych facility that finally interviewed (and hired) me. Sheppard Pratt has open RN positions, and you can apply for RN positions at State facilities with an application from Maryland's DHMH web site.

Try Washington Hospital Center. They have new grad fellowships

if you are desperate for a job....try genesis health care facilities or othe rLTC facilities...

the real reason why u cant get a job is because of teh economy...right now those nurses who could have retired are in the workforce b/c the economy is so messed up......but as soon as the econmomy goes back up...those baby boomers will retire...and the hospitals will be scrambling to hire people........

LTC is not bad...u will learn a lot..and get experience under your belt...plus the pay is more than being an hospital RN :)

Hi,

Children's medical center,children's hospital DC is recruiting. Check RN1/RN11 positions.

Goodluck
