I have no problem with an in depth background check. I’ve been a nurse for years so of course l know how vital background checks are given our profession and the huge responsibility that we carry. I just am used to getting fingerprinted at the place of employment on a machine. Mailing them in to an address and l have no idea where they are going and to who just doesn’t sit easy with me. Putting fingerprints in an envelope and dropping them off at the post office is just unsettling lol

So you didn’t mail them in? You just went somewhere and did it on a machine?

Anyone's nursing program require Castle Branch? Anyone have experience with the process? I just find it very unusual to mail in fingerprints. Maybe I am just being paranoid but with everything that is going on in the world, I just am very comfortable with mailing in my fingerprints. Really the whole background check process is unusual. I was reading that they contact friends and family. Can someone just explain the entire process to me if possible? Thank you so much!

Hello! I will soon be moving to Hawaii and l was wondering what hospital is best to work at or start at? Of course, before l decided to make a thread, like any great nurse, l did my research so this wouldn't be a redundant question. I found that all past threads are over 10 years old and if a lot can happen in just one year then l know there have been significant changes in 10. In my research l found that the most prevalent hospitals are Queens, Straub, Kaiser Permanente, Kaopioni and others. So l wanna know the basic things like pros and cons and please if you don't mind can you tell me what each hospital pays an hour? No, money isn't everything but l do have a family to support. Also tell me anything else that you would want to know if you were in my shoes. I have a year and a half of experience after working at the only level 1 trauma center in my state on the med surg floor! Also, what shifts are available? Here in my state l don't work everyday. Just 12 hr shifts and 3 times a week sometimes 4 is the max. I heard Hawaii is 8 hour shifts everyday?
