Thanks. Im so nervous but excited.

Thanks for the input guys @ skillet. I will do exactly that on monday

yes, it is within the same hospital and i have read the requirements and i satisfy it all. I have been reading about the nurse wanting to transfer to let the manager know...why do you need to do that?? it makes it seem like you cant do anything without their input or say so. I have known nurses who worked on my unit and have transferred without any problems. all they needed to do was to let the manager know they would be leaving in 4 wks(per our policy). besides telling the manager would not make her happy and i am willing to just get the job and move on..

I am a nurse currently working in a teaching hospital (oncology) but would like to transfer to another unit. I looked at the HR website and there are some open positions for the unit I would like to transfer to. I have applied online but its been a week and I have not heard aanything back. As some might say, give it some more time but I just get so paranoid sometimes and I see that the position is still open. Is it ok to call the manager of that unit and tell her im interested in working on her unit or does that seem desperate. I dont want to just sit back and wait, I actually want to be diligent in securing this job.. Thanks.

yea i heard the same thing. I did contact the NCBON yesterday and I was told that the NP rules states that the program must be an accredited program which is CCNE or NLN. I will be contacting an advisor tomorrow to further clarify this issue. I am in NC also...

I live in North Carolina and Im not sure if they will be taking students from NC. I will be calling tomorrow to Inquire!
