  3. New to NYC nursing originally from CA

    Yes, i'm a new grad. My orientation is for 6 months, and I won't truly be on my own until then. I guess my saying "i won't be able to touch anyone" was wrong wording on my
  4. No longer a new grad, still no job

    I finally found a job as an ER nurse in NYC, almost approaching my 3rd month of job hunting. Finding a job is a full-time job itself. The last part is key. You can't casually apply to jobs and wait...

  9. New Grad ER Links...

  14. Ok, so what do ya know about Yonkers?

    I don't think Montefiore/Albert Einstein takes new grads, in fact, hardly any of the hospitals in the Bronx are accepting new grads at the moment. There are "good" and "bad" places anywhere you go, so...
  15. Can't find a job

  21. Do away with 2-year programs for nursing

    Nobody really hires ASNs in NY (metropolitan and rural/upstate), unless you obtained it a loooooong time ago and are currently enrolled in a BSN.....with at least 30 credits towards completion. With...
  22. Worrying about an IV start...please help?

    Wow, my school and the hospitals I preceptored at/or did my clinicals with, had a strict policy on procedures like this. Students were not allowed to do any sort of venipuncture, only setting up...
