i have no prejudice, but some nurses are gossipers. I have an incident with my coworker, and the whole hospital knows in five minute. Now I request to transfer to another unit so that I can concentrate on learning new skills. I prefer working with ...

Hello! I am a med/surge nurse that need to transfer my pt to ICU with order for levophed. Registry ICU refused to take the pt citing government policy for not to keep 2 icu pts with levophed at the same time. I end up stuck with a critical pt over 1...

Thanks for everyone for your feedback. I am really grateful for all your assistance. For last three days I have been working and that ICU registry nurse is not seen anymore. My patient is still alive on ICU (thank god for that). I think my hospital...

as a preceptor in my hospital, i find some new grads really working too slow in the hospital setting. i would test them and raise my voice if they do something stupid. i feel bad inside but if i don't do that they wont learn really fast at the med ...

i will start my 1st job as a RN in a convalescent hospital. I am scared to death as I heard so many horrible stories. When I worked as CNA in hospital, it took me 3 months to feel comfortable. (some CNA were not helpful at all as they told you the...

All my younger classmates are hired after graduation in June. I have a second career and still no interview despite all my resume submission. Is state out of california better to the older workers? I just need my first year of experience.

I will leave california as it is saturated with RN. It is sad to leave california beautiful beach, good restaurants, its diverse culture and my friends and family. But if a job is opening, I will go packed up and leave. I am a nurse; I am to se...

I talk to a recruitor today at a hospital. she told me that hospital would pay $ 5000 bonus for a nurse with at least one year experience, but won't invest the time and money on new grad RN. She said "new grad often left after 6 months for another ...

hello! I really encourage older workers go back to nursing if that is their dream. I am just wondering how many of them found jobs in the hospital or nursing homes. I have nurses friends at their 50 could not find jobs at all for 1 year. I am cur...

Hello!! My name is snoopy54321. Can anyone email me the hireme list too by private message too. I really appreciate it. Thanks a lot

i promise to follow the rules now..it is hard to trace a 400 messages for a new girl. i have finally got my 15 post to get my pm privildge now. :thnkg: wish they make it easier.

I can't agree more. I read a lot of post regarding new grad can't a job offer after 1 year's search. It is very frustrating indeed. I would rather go out there trying anything else first to get my feet wet. snoopy_nurse

it is always like that in nursing home. understaffed and high client ratio.. I used to work in nursing home in Pomona and I have seen the worse...One night shift nurse did not go home until 10:00 am. She never show up again. First a couple of wee...

As a new graduate RN I will take on rn for SNF facility and still look for job in hospital. I heard new nurse wait for 1 year, still not able to get hired in hospital. i would prefer to work first than put all my eggs in one basket. snoopy_nurse

Some nursing homes in Pomona are really scarry. CNA and LVN takes care 20 patients at night shift. It was really hard for both workers. I used to work in a nursing home in Pomona, so I know the inside. Some CNA and LVN are sleeping at night b/c mo...

I will try looking for RN job at snf facility around los angeles area. is it hard getting a job at snf? I will cry if I only get $20/hour, considering the pain and sleepless night I go through with my RN license. But some people get $ 8.00/hour?...

Ok. Now I know the rule of this website. I will try to earn enough post to get pm priviledge. But can someone with hireme's list send me the infor? I am just curious. Thanks!!!! Snoopy_nurse

if you are a male with BSN, you are in better chance of getting hired. That is what I learnt from my classmates. All of the males have job before they graduate. some of them even have troubles passing the program. So, that is my two cents. Snoopy...

I am in the same boat as you do. fresh out of school with no job and no experience. I wish I had graduated two years eallier--hospital has to wine and dine us to work for their hospital. Now how the situation changes. I have decieded to pack up a...

hello! april2009: How do you find the job in snf facilities? do you just walk in and ask? I really need to try as a way to pay for the bills and education loan. your comment will be deeply appreciated. sincerely snoopy_nurse

Good for you:yeah:. Hope you get the job. I am happy for you. May be I should just go into the hospital to look for jobs. I hate dealing with online posting now. I need some human contact!!!!! My classmates got offers for the same jobs I am lo...

I have applied for a couple of months now but no response. Worse thing is that I heard some of my classmates even got the jobs I was applying for. I am happy for them, but can't help wondering why I did wrong. Oh!!
