Psych always interested me...in theory and in clinicals...I was leaning more towards ICU or ER b/c I need a high stress job and figured that would be a good first job b/c of skills and what not...but I was offered a psych position and I haven't regre...

I will most likely never do traditional beside nursing...I chose psych for many reasons and so far I love it....there is alot of flexibility in nursing but the majority of jobs are at a medical hospital

I think if you do agency that number is realistic...it may be a bit high for PRN but really it depends on the hospital...some hospitals pay wayyyyy more than others. I have one nurse making low 20's an hour full time, and another making 41/hr full t...

if you go into any specialty you are pidgeon holed....an l and d nurse would have a hard time getting a job on a medsurg floor...i chose psych as my first nursing job b/c i love psych...it's interesting to me and i don't like IV's, NG tubes, trachs l...

I needed a declatory order b/c I got arrested during nursing school....it took me like 3 weeks...I was just a month out from graduation so I was worried that I was not going to be able to take NCLEX with the rest of my peers...they approved me to tak...

I'm a new grad who just started a psych position...I'm just wondering what is the RN's role at your facility? At mine, each unit has 1 RN, 1 LVN, and 1-2 techs....tech's maintain the millieu, organize group activites, ensure pt's are following activi...

I'm a new gran RN with my ADN and my base pay is 29/hr plus my shift diff makes it 32..I turned down a job that was 24.50/hr plus 4.00 shift diff

I was recently hired at a psych hospital...one of my first choices..I also just graduated a month ago...well each unit is staffed like this...1 RN who is charge nurse, 1 LVN who does all meds and treatments, and 1-2 tech's who maintain the flow of th...

I think a good nurse is someone who realizes they have room for improvement and is concerned that they can always do better. We are not perfect, but the mark of a good nurse is someone who cares and strives to better the care that they give.

I graduated a month ago and I've received two job offers and just got an e-mail wanting to set up an interview for a possible third....I worked during nursing school as a tech...that is so highly valued IMO...you know what it's like to be the low man...

I think this depends on the facility and where you live...I know tons of people in med-surg who would love to get out but the market is just so competitive out there....

I have several friends who got hired...a couple for the medsurg spots, 2 for imu, 1 for icu, and the ER is doing their interviews on the 19th...if you haven't heard anything by now, it seems unlikely that you will since they have already made job off...
