I am looking into building a new onboarding for new nursing staff. The current process we have just doesn't work and frankly, we are having a hard time keeping new staff because of it. Any ideas of what works at your facility.

The problem currently is we don't have an onboarding process. The educator we had pretty much turned the orientees loose on the floor. We have a new educator that starts after the start of the new year so her and I will work together. I am trying to ...

Well, that is an opinion, just like my post is MY opinion. The OP is asking for everyone's opinion and input. I'm NOT a brand new grad and I went back to nursing school as an adult, first earning my ADN, working the floor for several years, then goin...

So I did do the research about the company buying out the small community hospital, and I took the job! I start in a few weeks as being in management I wanted to give my current employer plenty of notice to find a replacement. I am looking forward to...

"I'm sorry for your experience. While I suppose it's possible it happened exactly as you describe, I suspect that if we spoke to your preceptor, your manager, and the education department, we may hear a very different story. And somewhere in the midd...

If you got a call from HS regarding acute rehab, I would definitely follow up with that. I feel as an RN, especially a new grad, acute care is a better place to develop your skills. As a new grad, you need to develop those skills and experience in ...

So I just applied for this position within my facility and I know a little about the ins and outs of it but looking for some more particulars. I'm really excited about this opportunity and hopeful that my facility sees me as enough of an asset to pr...

Looking to get into a work from home nursing job such as nurse review for insurance company or telephone triage....something like that. Anyone do this for a respectable company and have any advice. I have heard some people working for WellPoint but...

I am 90% sure I will be offered an RN position for a Women's Health office to work with a new FNP!!! My goal is to become a WHNP so they felt this was the better position for me as I was passed up to work with the physician who does Peri-menopausal ...

So I completed my first week in my new position as Clinical Liaison and am LOVING it so far. It is a totally new aspect of helping patients and I look forward to the weeks to come.

I just started NP school but have determined I wish for my focus to be on Neonatal. Are there any NNPs out there that can offer any advice or tips? I will have to finish NP school and then go for my specialty. School suggestions? I looked into UM...

Yes this is why the position is so important....you must educate the hospital on your services to get referrals. I think LTAC has a lot to offer

Essentially it is a marketing position where you market the facility and try to get referrals for admissions. It requires local travel.

Thank you notes have been the "seal-the-deal" for me in many instances so I'm glad others do this. If you have a personal relationship with these people I think it is definitely appropriate to use first names and any card is appropriate. I usually ...

So I was awarded the clinical liaison position within my LTAC facility. I'm so excited and cannot wait to start my new journey.

So I got more insight on the position during my interview and through internal contacts. I have a corporate interview today which is the final step so we will see if I get offered the position. It is truly a dream job for me and I cannot wait to see...

Post this in LTC board....not LTAC board. These are not the same thing.

Try and rely on others if possible. I have been a nurse for 4 years and this occasionally still happens to me. We have a charge nurse at our facility that will typically have no patients or only 1 so they are usually available to assist other staff...
