I would like to hear from anyone that went through the GN program at Florida Hospital. How did you like it, did you feel it made your transition from new grad to nurse more smooth? How do you like working for FH? Any recommendations or help would be appreciated. Thank you

How did your interview go? Are you planning on moving to Orlando if you get the job? or commuting? I also had an interview with FH. Best of luck to you all!

Thanks for the help. I hope everything works out for you

Thanks for the info. it seems that the pay in Fl is very low compared to other states, esp. for a new nurse. But the job market is so bad right now, I am willing to take anything, get the experience and then move on. Florida Hospital in Orlando is another place that I am interested in, do you know anything about the quality there? Thanks again, and best of luck to you

Now that you have worked a few months at Charlotte Regional, how do you like it? I have an interview there soon and would like some input. What is starting pay for a new nurse? How are the benefits? Do they train you well and is it a nice place to work? THanks for all the help

User G, what hospital is hiring in S.fla?

What hospital is this?

Is this in Miami?

I am in the same boat as well. I graduated Dec.09 and still no job. I go on the web everyday and look all over the country and apply to jobs to no avail. Just recieve rejection emails. It's extremely frustrating and I think the only way to get a job, is to literally get lucky and they pick you out of the thousands of applicants they have or you have to know someone who can get you in. This problem is all over the country, not just here. I can only hope it picks up soon.

I am an RN also in the Miami area. I graduated Dec.09 and still have not been able to find a job. I have even applied to other states. It seems the only way to get hired these days is by knowing someone on the inside. It's very frustrating and unfair.

I would def. say bad idea, who can afford to work for that long for free?

Hi, I have been offered a job on a tele floor with a ratio of 1:8 nights. I am a new grad and would like to here from experienced nurses about what they think of this ratio. Is this a dangerous ratio? As an experienced nurse would you work with a ratio like this? What do you think for a new grad? Please any advice and details would greatly be appreciated!

IF I may ask which hospital are you working at? How do you like it?

What part of Ft.Laud are you looking at living in? It's like any other city in that you have your good areas and your bad areas. I'd say in the summer the heat is unbearable, muggy and downrite HOT, but the winters are beautiful. Good Luck

Everyone has an opinion about every hospital. It's hard to know whether it's good or bad until you actually work there.
