Recruiter Phone Tag
I had similar experience, now it's been five days. I called back within 5 minutes (call came out of state, and I work overnight, so I was sleeping) left message, called the following day - heard nothing back. I don't understand recruiter's behavior. Maybe they are from the same company ? :)

New Grad RN can't find a job
I do agree about working as a CNA might help, but economy has been difficult. Last six years of my life I worked on a medical- surgical unit at large community Hospital as a CNA come to find out that it is a gamble to get a job as a new RN in a Hospital that you currently work. My Hospital invested large amount of money in a new software, as a result no new grad program this year. After many years of dedicated work I am looking for a job else were. In fact working in a Hospital might bite you, on one interview I was openly told that nursing manager is tired of teaching new RNs for a year and then they leave to my Hospital.

Student Loan Debt
My story: Found job as CNA in a company that reimbursed $4000/ year. Went to Community College with tuition total $13000 and graduated with my ADN. Tuition reimbursement and out of pocket for the rest of the tuition, zero debt at the moment. I have Masters Degree that I received in Europe, plus ADN, currently job hunting for my first RN position and planning my next move. I would like smart people's opinion on what to do next: - get my BSN, and increase my chances on getting Hospital job. - get my MSN with some bridge classes, while working in rehab facilities. My life goal is to have MSN, but the question is how to approach it in a frugal way ?

Hi, thank you for your response. What I would like to do is to find a way to help her to have a hope having her child, actually I would like her to have supervised visitation. She is not stable to be with a child on her own, too many issues, but research has sown that mother with addiction problems benefit in having closer relationship with their children. It will be good for a little boy (2y.o) know that mom is around and she loves him, which I think she does and she can have a stimuli to get off drugs and comply with meds and treatment. Thank you for your responses and suggestions. You can see that I have some nursing diagnosis in mind but I am not sure that they are NANDA approved :) Thank you.

I have: 1. Risk for suicide related to depression as evidenced by patient statement: "I've been feeling suicidal for about a week now..." 2. Hopelessness related to loss of custody of 2 y.o. son as evidenced by pt. stating: "He was my life, I cant go without him." 3. Disturbed thought process related to impaired judgement as evidenced by delusional pt. statement: "I am not safe at project cope, I am only safe at the hospital" 4. Ineffective health maintenance related to substance dependence as evidenced by pt. long Hx. of drug use. 5.Dysfunctional grieving related to loss of custody of a son, as evidenced by suicidal ideation.
