@riverotter Thank you so much for the info. There are soo many locations to choose from. I'm currently more Upstate NY but I don't mind relocating if needed. Any suggestions on which facilities to choose? I was thinking maybe Attica, Wende, Livingsto...
@riverotter Hi, I'm a nurse with about 1.5 experience and I want to get into correctional nursing. I'm also in NY and any advice or recommendations on which facilities to work at is welcomed. I want something fast paced where I were see everything. S...
Hi, I graduated nursing school back in Oct 21 and was working in a level 4 NICU. I thought it was what I wanted to do but I also loved my L&D clinical and fell in love with it. With that being said after 11 months of NICU I left that hospital and...
Hi, I've always wanted to become a L&D nurse. I started off as a level 4 NICU nurse and did that for 10 months before landing a job at a different hospital in L&D. I started of on postpartum and from the very beginning the manager and nurse e...
Hi, ever since I graduated from nursing school I just knew I wanted to work in the NICU and I got hired as a new graduate nurse. So far I’ve been working in my level lV NICU for about 10 months and I like it but I don’t love it. There are days when I...
Update: I already found a different job within this same specialty at a different hospital. . I talked with other people and apparently this department is known to do this for people who look a certain way. I dogged a bullet.
So applied to a Labor and Delivery job in my hospital about a month ago. We did a pre-interview on Zoom and everything went good so I was offered the chance to shadow on the floor then after do an official interview. However, that's when things took ...
Hi, I was just wondering if you have heard any updates about these hopistals. I’m thinking about moving to Texas from NY. I personally follow some nurses from social media who work at Memorial Hermann or even Houston Methodist who seems like the...
I rotate between days and nights but I still leave at the same time. On Days I leave around 06:15 and get to work around 6:35-06:45ish depending on traffic. The parking is such a long walk so I need about 10-15 minutes to walk from employee parking a...

@nicurn96 Nice when you applied were you a local resident or did you apply and have to move from another state? Did you have your senior capstone on the nicu? Unfortunately for me I didn’t get my first pick for NICU so I’m a little bummed. Is there a...
So I am officially a senior nursing school student!! I still have a couple of semesters to go but I want to start collecting letters of recommendations. When searching for jobs some state that they want at least 2 letters of recommendations so my que...

Out of curiosity did anyone send in letters of recommendation? Was it a requirement to have them? I tend to be a quiet student so asking for letters of recommendation is quite scar for me sense I feel like my professors and clinical instructors don’t...

Out of curiosity did anyone send in letters of recommendation? If so how many and is it a requirement to have them? I’m more of a shy nursing student so asking for recommendations is a challenge for me because I feel like my professors and clinical i...

I’m assuming your friend accepted a new grad residency position as a nurse. What this means is that while working on whichever unit they were hired for such as med surg, ICU, Labor & delivery, they will have a preceptor or experienced nurse work ...
I’m a senior nursing student and I’m starting my job search. However, so many new grad positions that I want all need at least 2 references or letters of recommendations. Since all of my nursing classes have been online and I tend to be a shy and qui...
I'm a senior nursing student and I'm torn on choosing my top 3 areas to do my capstone in. My dream top would be to work in NICU or OB as a labor and delivery nurse. I know for a fact that the hospitals here don't hire new grads into these specialty ...
Yes to go off of this I agree. I’m also from NY and I dream of working in the NICU but there are no programs that allow new grads. What state do you live in because it seems as if I’m going to need to move?
NICUnLDRN replied to Courtshort's topic in Pre-Nursing
Out of curiosity is anyone here going to be also working full time while doing this program. I’m trying to figure out how exactly to make this work. I barley made it out alive taking two classes (A&P2 and Micro) and passing. I know it’s possible ...
