The specialty is the operating room. I feel confident that I would enjoy that environment, and this particular hospital is willing to train someone without prior OR experience. I am considering this hospital because I live close enough to take call, whereas my current hospital is to far away from my home for call to be feasible.
Thanks for the advice. The loss of benefits is a factor, as well as pay. I would actually be taking a pay cut to accept this position, as well accruing less vacation time, etc. I would be getting into a specialty that I think I would like though. I have a lot to consider.
Hello. I'm new to allnurses and looking for some advice. I am an experienced nurse and have been working for the same hospital for over 15 years in a variety of positions. Three months ago I started a new position and am currently on orientation for that job. An opportunity has come up at another hospital closer to where I live that I would really like to pursue, in a specialty that I think I would really enjoy. Should I pursue this opportunity, or would it be wrong to consider doing so after just recently beginning something new? I don't want to burn any bridges. Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks!!
