I'm a male nurse and work full time hh, it happens from time to time. I have worked for 5-6 agencies, some of the office staff will have some prejudices and be hesitant to assign me. In my experience this is only a factor in about 10% of cases or les...

Hey all, I can help out with V1 and V2 . does anyone have info on V3 and beyond. PM me.

could anyone tell me if one can get a job in an NYC nursing home these days?

The American Southwest excluding California is hiring. South Texas, southern parts of NM and Arizona. In the RGV in Texas including cities like Laredo, McAllen, Brownsville they really need people you can essentially get a job in specialty youd like....

As far as I know Rush and U of C are the only hospitals that really push that BSN only jibberjabber. At most hospitals youre all good with an ASN, BSN will help though.

I know that im most areas of the country Home Health, LTC hospitals, and nursing homes are easier to get into. Certainly true here in Chicago. Looking foward, the obama initiative will put NPs in a good position in the future, but that is years down ...

Based on what ive been reading on the posts, South Texas and Southern New Mexico are the only areas of the country hiring or with moderate job prospects. This probably has much to do with the fact that real estate prices didnt bubble like they did in...

Hey Commuter, Is that still a valid statement: They are recruiting new grads??

Southeast Texas is always hiring

FYI, anyone looking to move for a job RGV texas is hiring for everything, I hear its rough out in those parts though. especially if you dont speak spanish.

thanks for the input guys and gals. thats amazing that not even home health agencies are not looking for nurses. I have LPN home health and nursing home experience. I also speak spanish. do you all think I could find something given that scenario?

you can do LPN program at a private school or a lesser know program. Go to the board of nursing website for NY or NJ and call all the LPN programs. kind of expensive but they will take you regardless of your situation. from LPN you can bridge to RN....

hey Nurse educate, generally speaking how is the home health job market in the city? Is it possible to get full time work (working with several agencies or just one) with 6 months experience as an LPN doing home health? is the home health market satu...

and im not saying that becasue i fall into that category, my grades are fairly good, i just dont like hating.

"this does not reflect very well on the schools that admit these types of students. someone that has to take remedial reading and can barely pass their required classes should probably reconsider pursuing a career in nursing. hey, mcdonalds is always...

wow, congrats

also KKC is easier to get into Wright College i believe accepts about a third to a half of its applicants, mostly they base their admission on test score. But, I you have been a CNA for some yoears and follow up with them vigoursly semester after se...
