  1. SCVMC / VMC - Clinical Nurse I - 2022

    I applied too but just got an email stating I was on the waitlist. I'm pretty far down so don't think I'll get any calls for interview.
  2. Yes-agree with everything you said! At this point I’m not as willing to move locations as much as I’m willing to bite the bullet and give bedside a try. I may have an opportunity in the fall to do...
  3. Hi, thanks for sharing this! I know who she is and also follow her content. I’ve done the workshop/course she has to offer and been a part of her subscription/group before but I feel like I just...
  4. Wow thank you so much for this heads up!! Will look up today! Are their new grad positions just listed as “clinical nurse
  5. I've been an NP for the past 7 years but I've been thinking about doing bedside nursing for the past 4 years. I keep trying and trying to change my NP jobs to see if I'll find better satisfaction, but...
  6. Thanks so so much! You and Spinmass are doing a great job with advertising the opportunities and benefits outside of CA
  7. Hi! Thank you so much! At the moment I’m going to try applying broadly where I am and see if that takes me anywhere. I think if push comes to shove, I wouldn’t be opposed to relocating for a short...
  8. Thank you so so much! This means a lot to me, more than you
  9. LOL thank you for the response! I was discussing this on another post, and one of my reasons for going back to bedside IS to get more experience that might help me get into acute care roles as a...
  10. Hi, original poster here! Thank you Nurse Beth for answering this one so quickly. I've changed jobs about 3 times in the 7 years I've worked - done FQHC/community health care, school-based health...
  11. Thank you for your advice! I did work as an RN while in school- outpatient settings only though. I knew someone that worked as an RN in a long term care facility for years but was still accepted into...
  12. I may be going through a mid-life crisis but I'm feeling very lost as an NP these days. I'm going into my 5th year as a PNP in Northern California, and currently already at my 3rd job, and already...
  13. I actually do work for a large chain company (a la Dignity, Sutter, Kaiser although I don't want to specifically say which!), and ALL of their NPs and PAs are 50% admin and 50% clinic within my...
  14. When I interviewed it was clear that the MDs were not yet 100% sure what my tasks would be, so I described to them my current work day. They sort of alluded to the fact that I would be doing some...
  15. Silicon Valley/Bay Area NP jobs/salaries

    I heard that Kaiser is actually not hiring many NPs nowadays due to the CNA/union, and is moving in favor of PAs. The NPs at Children's Hospital Oakland (and also UCSF Benioff Mission Bay) also more...
  16. Hi everyone...I'm having a bit of a mental meltdown. I'm a primary care PNP from a direct-entry program now working in primary care. I wasn't an RN before I became and NP so I only really have primary...
  17. Am I doing the right thing?

    Thank you for the reassurance. I'm actually in a post master's program for pediatric acute care now. The learning curve is steep, which is why I feel incompetent, especially when I'm comparing myself...
  18. Am I doing the right thing?

    Hi, Yes primary care working in a clinic seeing only pediatric patients (oldest I've see is up to 22-24 but this is rare). At times, especially during the flu season, I see a fair number of kids...
  19. Am I doing the right thing?

    Thank you for replying. When you say that, do you think that if I do well in primary care and I'm enjoying my job, that I should just stay put..and just give
  20. I never fully learned how to deal with professional liability insurance so would appreciate any advice people might have. I've held a couple jobs in the past so I need some help in figuring out...
  21. Hello! I'm a primary care PNP that had gone through a direct entry masters program (read: I have very little RN experience) with an itch to return back to inpatient RN work. I have been in primary...
  22. I am hoping this is the correct place, if not send me in the right direction allnurses! My background: - Primary care certified PNP - Graduated from direct-entry MSN/NP progrma - no paid acute...
  23. That would be great! What state do you practice in? I have been told that in California I don't specifically need the acute care certification-but, I might just given my lack of wrk experience in...
  24. Not sure if this is the correct forum to post-- please feel free to move or direct me to the right place if so. I'm a pediatric NP with 3 years of experience now as an NP (going into my 4th year), now...
  25. I've been looking and checking around every now and then (most recently tonight) but haven't seen anything yet. I'm not technically a "new grad" but I'm an NP that's brainstorming ways I could get...
