I follow MAPS too and have been wondering the same! I think in time, they will need trained medical professionals, including nurses. Just don't drink the kool-aide

sounds like first world problems to me be grateful you got a job and get your experience. and didnt you say pay was more? some of us in parts of the country cant land a hospital job out of school because its so impacted. its rough.

SO BITTER. My lordt reading other posts makes me feel sad for them. You guys, you're NOT victims! I digress.. thanks so much for your reply, Quota. I know nursing is what I want to do and have since I was little. I'm willing to endure the shitstorm. Maybe its not for everybody, but I'm tough

Man this is so disheartening. Is the answer really to quit nursing? As a new grad nurse about to enter the workforce I've heard this over and over. "Are you sure you want to be a nurse? Don't work here, I'm only here for the pay", etc. They tell me I'll be jaded soon too, but I hope not.

Hello! I am a new grad (almost RN). We revamp our resumes during our final semester but I'm a perfectionist so here I am still working on it. What I would love is feedback on how my prior 11 year public health/office management job skills can be translated to nursing. Please see below for current version.. :) Your help, feedback, and questions are appreciated. Many thanks! Also, this is obviously not my whole resume. Only the Professional Experience section. The rest left out for anonymity. I'd share privately if anyone is willing to review.
