I feel better that I'm not the only one in this situation. I have yet to take the refresher course but in the mean time I've been trying to get any kind of position in a doctors office or hospital but not having any luck. I hope we will all have luck finding a nursing position after coming back to the profession! Has anyone taken the Capscare online refresher course? I was wondering how it was.

I am currently in the process of reactivating my license which I let expire 5 years ago. I graduated from nursing school when I was 19, got my license, and then accepted a position in a long term care facility. Well I didn't last long in this environment. I felt overwhelmed and just not ready for a nursing career. I'm now 36 and wanting to return to nursing after all these years. I truly enjoy a medical environment but I'm concerned about how easy it will be to get back into the career. Has anyone else ever been in a similar situation and made a successful transition back into nursing?
