Hello fellow nurses! I have been working in LTC for 6 months now and am really interested in getting a hospital job. This is my first nursing job out of school with my ADN. I have been a bit discouraged because I have not been able to use many skills. Got to do a few straight caths, minimal wound care, and one attempt at an IV with a dehydrated resident. I am worried if I try for a hospital position they might look down at the little experience I have gained and minimal skills I have gotten to do. I have really learned great time management, working well with the interdisciplinarity team, communicating with families and deligating my CNA's. I have only worked down one hall with, for the most part the same 25 residents. So I have gotten to know these wonderful people very well and a lot of their needs. Does anyone think I will have luck finding a hosp position? Any advice? I really appreciate it and will take any advice I can get, especially from you nurses with more experience then me. Thanks so much:)!!
