I have never worked home health, only in acute care hospitals and both hospital affiliated and non affiliated outpatient surgical centers. What Elfriede said makes a lot of sense.
I really like out patient surgical nursing but it doesn't compare to acute care nursing experience. I'd take the outpatient surgical job. You can keep applying to hospitals, maybe eventually get a job in a hospital affiliated surgical center.

Hello Everyone! I wanted to discuss and hear opinions regarding which occupation is better for a graduate nurse. I recently graduated with a BSN in Nursing. I have been looking for jobs in the NJ area specifically hospitals but due to my lack of in experience, I have only been able to land jobs such as those in an Outpatient surgical Center non hospital affiliated, as a pre op nurse or home health nursing. Which do you suggest would provide a new graduate nurse with more experience?
