    rn-jane replied to futurenicunurse2008's topic in First Year After Licensure

    CONGRATIONS!! I think it's best you did not ask your manager at this point. If you already know someone on the unit, ask who a good preceptor is and how it can be requested for you to be trained by...

    rn-jane replied to Tessa88PN's topic in General Nursing

  10. New Grad.....How long?

    rn-jane replied to goodspiritsRN's topic in General Nursing

    Take this time to learn as much as you can at the nursing home with meds, wound care and assessments. Things did not go as planned, when the job market opens back up start pounding the pavement. If...

    rn-jane replied to momwithajob2's topic in General Nursing

    rn-jane replied to cwuthers's topic in General Nursing
