  1. I'm a new graduate with a BSN in the New England area. For transparencies sake, i was offered a position in acute care with a starting wage of $26.50 and $2.50 differential for nights. It was very difficult finding hospital work and the pay seems mediocre at best. Nursing homes in the area were offering about $26/hour. It's embarrassing talking about pay when there are nurses easily making double my income. I don't want to sound fallacious but it seems universities pump out enough nurses for hospitals to replace their entire nursing staff every year. Obviously that statement is hyperbolic but the job market seems flooded with new grads in the coastal areas. I don't have any friends in nursing and pay is a volatile and taboo topic so maybe i'm uninformed.
  2. I graduated with my bsn in the fall and immediately applied to multiple rn postions in acute care. In total i applied to 70ish positions. 3 months later i had not gotten any call backs. i assumed i wouldn't be getting hired and pick up a job at a nursing home. I started orientation and after the first day got a call from a manager offering me a position in acute care. is there anyway to quit without management at this nursing home black listing me and trying to destroy my career. During the orientation they made it clear they would go after people who detracted without giving 2 weeks notice. I honestly see no way out of this. From the nursing homes persepctive what im about to do is irredeemable. I dont know when i'll be starting the new position but i want to leave the nursing home before they pay to train me further. Any advice is appreciated, doing something like this isn't natural to me.
