That's good advice, and yes it's annoying when an ER nurse leaves all kinds of orders for me to do. I appreciate your words, I'm fighting to make it to a year.
Question Question, for you seasoned nurses. I currently have two jobs. One working on a acute care Med Surg floor in a hospital 75 miles from home. I also work nights so getting home is a chore. I have almost had at least a handful of accidents. I al...
Hello all, You have always been a wonderful forum for me throughout my nursing journey, from nursing school to taking the NCLEX, and now looking for a job. I had a great interview on Monday and I thought it went so good. They were going to interview ...
How long did you wind up staying there? I'm in a similar situation but not with all charges. Some are excellent. After about 9 months I plan to leave. Curious to know what you did.

Well I didn't get that ER SPOT but I did get a Tele job. I also work for a registry and nearing my year. I still want the Er or ICU seems more interesting now. Anyone else have ideas?

Cool! Good luck, keep me posted. Was NICU your first choice? It was mine but I interviewed at a NICU earlier this year. I believe 2-3 weeks. I'm waiting on the HR process, you know that can be long.

Hi All, Thank you for your advice. I wound up not taking the SNF job but was holding out for the acute care job. After 5 interviews and 10 months after passing boards. I got the call the same day as my last interview. Of course I tweaked my interview...

Me too! Although HR told me that the ER is not hiring. He also said some departments can wait till the end of the month to interview. Good luck to everyone. If I hear anything else I will post. If anyone gets an interview please post so we can stay a...
