If you go to the Oregon state board of nursing web site they have an entire section on rural hospitals with county and city listings. If you are really interested in rural you should also check out the IHS (Indian health services) they have many rural situations that need people with some nice federal benefits :)

Thanks for the info, I am in a BSN program and find I am fustrated when they ask me to document something yet I have only had a small amount of exposure and no formal training. Considering this is a major issue relating to nurses being investigated and losing their license it would seem the focus on this issue would be elevated.

Hello all, I am doing a research project on the subject of "How should students learn to document care while in nursing school" First for all students does your program provide a comprehensive class on documentation, and the legalities, or is this a topic touched on by a few instructors requiring proficiency for clinical experience? Secondly for those who are already nurses, how do you feel about the quality of documentation from new grads, and did you have specific training prior to entering the field? Thanks in advance for any help on this topic. Web links with information about documentation and nursing errors is also helpful :) if anyone has some. Csuev
