EMM1

Great - thanks. I hope it translates to a pure post-acute/LTC setting. We'll see. Worth a try though.

It would be for LPNs too actually - so that they can advance professionally within their job....

Thanks. I am trying to develop this for work so that we can compete for nurses with the hospital. One of the benefits that the hospital offers them is a career ladder...this means they would be hired in at one level but then offered the opportunity for job advancement while still working at the bedside - so they don't have to go into management to get a promotion. From what I have seen at career fairs and doing interviews, many younger nurses are looking for career ladders. It's getting harder to recruit, so I am just trying to think of new things...

Hi I know pretty much every hospital has a career ladders for RNs where they can be RN1, RN2, RN3, etc based on their skills and experience. Does anyone know of any career ladders for RNs in LTC? I am trying to develop one but can't find any LTC references. Thanks for any ideas!!
