I'm an ICU nurse of 1.5years. Im trying to get into postpartum nursing. There are rarely openings posted but I've come across a few per diem positions. All I've done is ICU since becoming an RN so I...
At Cypress College, they give preference to LVNs for the 3rd semester slots. I graduated with 6 or 7 LVNs. One of them said she and her friend got in as soon as the prerequisites were completed....
Awww what happened? I guess it would be pretty drastic to move to an entirely new area while going through orientation. Congrats on deciding to stay though! I was looking forward to seeing how you...
