Are you talking about Eagle Pass,Texas?because thats on the border of mexico..I'm going there by the end of this month to settle.I've already took a tour there a couple weeks ago..and I love the hospital :)

where in Texas??perhaps?

Hi Donnuh, I know how you feel..I'm kinda a new grad too..graduated last year having my BSN as well.Congratulations to you!you've made it..next step finding a job!I live in San Diego,CA..and yes its pretty tough looking for a job here in Cali especially for new grads..the hospitals need experienced RN!After days and days of searching i finally gave a shot at a nursing home and been working there for 5 months already.Its not bad for starters cuz you will learn alot in the beginning but as you get used to the routine you come to a point werein you want to learn somthing more.I'm resigning there in a couple days cuz iv already found a job in Texas..in Texas theyr really hiring new grads in hospitals.If you want the experience you need,two years on ur belt and ur good to go find another hospital..experience is really what you need on ur first two years of working as a RN,so alittle sacrifice is worth it esp whats happening in cali nowadays..

Replying to rayj "What kind of research did you do on eagle pass, tx. Is it a bad place? How r the people? Etc? Plese let me know. I was offered an interview on site at the hospital facility and now im starting to second guess because alot of ppl were saying its such a shady place? " I'm a new grad RN..residing in california..right now its kinda on a hiring freeze for new grads especially without experience.I checked out eagle pass,tx at Fort Duncan Regional Medical Center. My main goal is to look for a hospital that would grant me the experience i need then go back to california. I toured eagle pass,tx for 3 days.A long drive from San Antonio,tx. Very country style on the road..ranch upon ranch until i reached eagle pass..its a small town.not much to gimik but the hospital was great on the outside and inside.very clean.i spoke with some of the nurses there.and they said its good for the experience for new grads starting their profession.the bonus is good but dont expect much with the salary der gonna give you.for me its a decent pay but like i sed its for the experience.plus im not city person thats loves to gimik.im more of a home guy,goes to church,has fellowship with other christians,work and occasional goes out.im more of being contented to what is available..so yah eagle pass,tx for me is decent,looks safe and people friendly..
