  1. People really need to stop coming into nursing

    CardiacRNLA replied to DUDERNGUY's topic in General Nursing

    YOU don't need to be rude. It seems like many nurses regardless of experience make the same choice. And I am not going to apologize for being a human with feelings. I am glad you are so put together...

  2. People really need to stop coming into nursing

    CardiacRNLA replied to DUDERNGUY's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, I know. I am not saying that it isn't. It is just that some of the posts before made it seem like new nurses were bad for feeling that way. Maybe I am reading more into

  3. People really need to stop coming into nursing

    CardiacRNLA replied to DUDERNGUY's topic in General Nursing

    I am so tired of people thinking that all new grads are just about "me." Or that we don't want to work for things. Not ALL new grads fit this bill. I got a BA and MPA before I went into nursing. I was...

  4. Orlando Health Paying RNs More than Fl. Hospital Orlando

    CardiacRNLA replied to Preeps's topic in Florida Nursing

    Also, depending on your charge nurse, your assignment can totally suck, with two or more total care patients, and a admission during your shift on top of all the other stuff I mentioned. So yeah, if...

  5. Orlando Health Paying RNs More than Fl. Hospital Orlando

    CardiacRNLA replied to Preeps's topic in Florida Nursing

    I will only say this as a new grad. I am quitting nursing all together because of my experience at FL Hospital. Nurses do everything! Even one of my patients asked once "Do you have any CNAs here? You...

  6. Hate Medical Nursing! I want Psych!

    CardiacRNLA posted a topic in Psychiatric

    So here's the deal, prior to nursing school, I worked in psychiatric case management. I worked with MDs, SWs but not really the nurses. I did however, have great relationships with the nurses. I loved...

  7. St. Vincent's Behavioral Health Salary?

    CardiacRNLA posted a topic in Connecticut Nursing

    Hi all (again lol), I was wondering if anyone works at St. Vincent's Behavioral Health in Westport? I got a call for an interview for a New Grad program. They said it was 5-6 mo orientation and...

  8. St. Vincent's Behavioral Health Salary?

    CardiacRNLA replied to CardiacRNLA's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    **Update everyone** I was told by the DON that I was provisionally hired for the RN Intern Program and will transition to my hired position (32 hr nights) after orientation. However, this is taking...

  9. what did I get myself into

    CardiacRNLA replied to new and confused's topic in First Year After Licensure

    That's exactly how I feel right now. I really hate nursing. Maybe it is just this particular hospital I hate. It's primary nursing, so the nurse does just about everything. And since this hospital is...

  10. Moving to CT. Any new grad jobs?

    CardiacRNLA posted a topic in Connecticut Nursing

    Hello All CT RNs, I moved from NYC to Florida for a job. Well it ended up not being exactly what I thought it would be and I quit. Actually I thought I was going to be moved to a lower acuity unit...

  11. Moving to CT. Any new grad jobs?

    CardiacRNLA replied to CardiacRNLA's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    Well, I quit the unit because for me, it just wasn't a good fit. I was in a RN residency program. The workload, the toxic environment and some nurse bullying were enough to quit. My educator (my...

  12. Moving to CT. Any new grad jobs?

    CardiacRNLA replied to CardiacRNLA's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    Okay. Yeah that's what I was told. I just I am just thinking that obviously the pay would be less than someone working 36-40 hours a week. I'm also wondering for the other hospitals if I apply, should...

  13. Moving to CT. Any new grad jobs?

    CardiacRNLA replied to CardiacRNLA's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    Ha! I am in a RN-BSN program and should graduate in a year or less. It seems like a lot of the hospitals are hiring part-time or 32 hr weeks. Is this a way to pay nurses

  14. Moving to CT. Any new grad jobs?

    CardiacRNLA replied to CardiacRNLA's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    Thanks! It seems like they are looking for BSN nurses :/ I am in process so maybe they will be willing to overlook it

  15. Moving to CT. Any new grad jobs?

    CardiacRNLA replied to CardiacRNLA's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    It was really bizarre. It was apparent that the woman hadn't done any interviews before. She even alluded to it. She was covering for the clinical nurse leader on maternity leave. I have no idea where...

  16. St. Vincent's Behavioral Health Salary?

    CardiacRNLA replied to CardiacRNLA's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    You've been awesome! Just ONE more question I promise. The position is for nights (also it says full-time but 64 hrs every 2 weeks?). Do they have good night and weekend differentials? Thanks! Sorry...

    CardiacRNLA posted a topic in Florida Nursing
