I graduated in December 2010, got my licence on Jan. 18 2011, got a job interview on Jan. 21, 2011 and was hired on the spot. Took the job because in south TX there are no hospitals hiring new nurses, they all want experience. I have been "orienting" 5 days and the last 2 days I have had patients assigned to me already. I am not being trained on how things are done on that floor (med surg), such as paperwork and procedures. I am not intimidated by starting IV's or giving meds but feel like I should be trained...for the safety of the patients and my license. I talked to the nurse manager who hired me and she flat out told me that she has no one to train me, that somehow my "RN training" would be done later, to just do nursing for right now." (so what does that mean?) I'm training myself basically. I hate to leave that job but am wondering, should I stay even though there is only 2 nurses (one is the charge nurse) for 9 patients and zero training? Charge nurse only takes 1 patient, the other 8 are for the staff nurse... How long should I stay if I do? I also commute 75 miles each way to work there... Would really appreciate any words of wisdom and advise.
