    I just need some advice on this one, and it's making me NERVOUS.

    SE_BSN_RN replied to sherabear's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    As a new nurse, I would have been asking questions. Ask the person orienting you, your immediate supervisor AND your DON. I would imagine they would be happy to explain their reasoning to you,...

    SE_BSN_RN replied to cardioverter's topic in Colorado Nursing

    I know this is a late (haha) reply....but are you sure NCMC hires new grads? Every position open says "NO" to new grads! If there is a secret to it, please, let me know!

    Are you doing an LPN-BSN? If so, Children's won't hire you. If WSU is your typical 4 year, you're good. Good

    Current Climate for LPNs in CO?

    SE_BSN_RN replied to KRODD's topic in Colorado Nursing

    Depends on where in CO. The pay for LPN's is low, especially home care (16-19/hr). LTC is a little better (18-21/hr) but jobs are very scarce. As for LPN to RN, your choices are limited there, too....

    New Grad Traumatized After First Interview

    SE_BSN_RN replied to rollieem's topic in First Year After Licensure

    It seems as though that is a trend. Either places won't/don't hire new grads. Or students. You have to know where you want to work, and why. I had a staff development cordinator that said "I am never...

    I would think they all do, especially the magnet hospitals. I'd call the HR's of the places you are interested in and ask. They may hire you on as a tech until you get your
