Ours is 2 vials but we do it from the same site at the same time. It requires dual sign off that you verified the patient identity so once I've drawn the specimen I flag down a nurse thats walking by to sign off of it.

NYC has pay transparency laws, all the hospitals have their salary written in the job description. Bellevue and all H+H hospitals pay 84k starting salary. Im not sure what their night differential is but Im guessing its about 5k.

The market is great for new grads but its also hospital dependent. Some hospitals will take new grads for only med surg which is annoying but its an easy job to come by and you can switch specialties after 1 year. I had 3 MS offers at 3 different NYC hospital systems but I took the only hospital system that accepted me for emergency department. The hospitals that took me for MS all have fellowship programs for ED, OR and a few other specialties but I wasnt selected. Not sure what kind of unicorn theyre looking for if not for my 8 years experience prior to becoming an RN. There are a few job listing that say no new grads but its basically from the 2 specialty hospitals in the area.

NYP BMH is $99,196 base with $7k nights differential and $1750 for BSN.
