Summary: i work full time at a local hospital and part time at a correctional facility, i found that working at the cf more financially rewarding, less stress, and better working environment, i stay at the hospital for the skill set they offer. my dilemma is that while the cf is offering me a more permanent and full time position, it wont happen for a while and i hope to change my status in the hospital to parttime, for personal reasons; my problem is that if i pull through w my plans ill have two part time jobs and no health insurance to cover my behind, i need advice is what i could do...are there outside health/retirement insurances/plans that i can get?newbie nurse, and super noob to the work force, any advice would be of great help.

Your share would be larger, but still cheaper than buying on your own.Retirement? See if either offers a 401k/403b to part-timers; or just set up an IRA or Roth IRA on your own. Fidelity, T Rowe Price, Vanguard all offer automatic deposits for as little as $25-50 per month.
