Hello all! I know this topic has been beaten to death, but I am really stressing out over turning in my resignation letter. I recently interviewed for a prn position at a hospital I love that is much closer to home, and they ended up offering me a full time position. My question is, how detailed should the resignation letter to my manager be? She knows that I applied for a prn position because that hospital required me to ask for a reference from her. Should I explain that they ended up offering me full time and my reasons for taking it? Or should I just write a letter with minimal information? I am afraid she will think I lied about it being a prn position when I asked for the reference. Thanks in advance!

If you want to work on your current unit, I would go for the ADN. If you want to go into perioperative nursing, I would go ahead and get your BSN and try to get a periop job after graduating. I have worked with nurses who went the ADN route and then weren't able to switch to the specialty they wanted.

Thanks for the reply! I will email him...even though I feel totally awkward about it!

Hi all! I was hoping someone could help me out with my dilemma. I recently interviewed at hospital #1 and was told I needed to interview with the VP of nursing before a job offer would be extended. I then got an offer to interview at hospital #2 and was offered the position there today! I accepted the offer from hospital #2. Do I need to email the manager from hospital #1 and let him know that I accepted a position at a different facility? He never formally offered me the position; he just said that the next step was the interview with the VP. He did, however, email me his contact info in case I had any questions. I had set up an interview for next week with the VP through HR, but never received a confirmation for the interview. I have already called the HR recruiter at hospital #1 and let her know that I accepted a different position. The two hospitals are within in the same system, but have different HR recruiters. If it makes a difference, this is for a PRN position. Thanks for reading!

You did the right thing! Good job! Your coworkers, however, are terrible teammates and I'm sorry they weren't as helpful as they should have been.

Hello all! I have searched the site for an answer, but haven't come across anything. I graduated with my BSN in 2013 and am working full time in a Level III NICU. I am considering a PRN position at a pediatric home health agency. My question is, if I am offered this PRN position (or in the future, any PRN position), do I have to tell my full time employer I have a second job? I don't have a problem telling my employer, just wondering if I should or not! Thanks in advance!
