  9. Chiming in.....I was taught you could go from trach to mouth in terms of suctioning, just not the other way around (mouth to
  10. how to get the elusive, required, First Med Surg job?

    Some hospitals will tell you that they have Open Houses. Boy, what a circus! And all they do is take your resume and add it to the neverending pile of new grad prospectives. Then they wave you away...

  17. Which hospitals to recommend in NYC?

    @NYLady, love your list. Montefiore is not an HHC, though,
  18. I should also add that had it been me (believe me, I can turn on the theatrics), I would have asked to find a different room to interview in, even if it means we're sitting on the floor in a...
  19. I can't answer any of your questions, as I am a new grad RN. From your choices, you are very ambitious, which is wonderful (ALWAYS AIM HIGH). Just make sure that you have your BSN, otherwise, those...
  20. OP, was this for the position at Coney Island (referring to your other thread post)? Best of luck to

  24. Voluntary Survey

    Nobody wants to bite I see
  25. No longer a new grad, still no job

    NOT HIRING. But I love Rochester, they have the most wonderful nurse recruiters who get back to you even if there are no available positions. Mount Sinai, take a page, please. *rolls eyes* By the way,...
