   50 Things New Nurses Need to Know about Orientation

   NewYorkerGirl replied to Lynda Lampert, RN's topic in First Year

   Some cheap junk the hospital IT people made up themselves. I can't see what was charted before without clicking on it. I can see a headline, like that cardiac was an issue, but not the detail of the chart, like that pt had high BP.

   NewYorkerGirl replied to khood's topic in Tennessee

   Yeah, one lousy dollar an hour. $21 and change an hour for a new grad. Still anemic, even for the south.

   Also, the differentials stink. Weekend differential-$6.00 per hour, evening differential $3.00 per hour (between 3p-11p), nights $3.50 (between 11p-7a).

   I'm in a year-long residency, and that's the pay. I think Vandy's low-balling because of the name Vandy, not because of a residency program. Anyhow, enjoy Nashville! I'm sure it'll be fun.

   I told Vandy no. It was a tough decision, but the pay is just too low. They aren't even paying $21 an hour. Ouch. I'll be making $25.50-29.50 an hour where I'm at. I can't walk away from that.

   Me too. NC is a hard nut to crack. I tried Vidant, UNC, Rex, Duke, and Novant (Winston-Salem and Charlotte), and heard nothing from all of them.

    They gave us until the 25th to respond. Maybe you're waitlisted until they know who's in and who's out. Good luck.

    I got the same email before the application was open. They kept my email address from an email I sent in July, and that made me think they were really interested in me. Then I don't even get an interview! I though that was a little mean. I'm gonna sleep on my Vandy decision tonight.

    Great! Are you going? I remember you from the Swedish Hospital thread, xpressel38. I was so devastated that I didn't even get an interview there. All forgotten now!! :)

    I know what you mean, the problem of being blessed with opportunity! Vandy made me an offer, but I already accepted a really good job that pays better. What to do, what to do...

    Sorry to hear that, Craig. CVICU is probably a really tough nut to crack in any hospital. You can always apply to Vandy after a year of experience at your current hospital.
