At my facility the job is posted with the hours you would work, so you pick the job you want to apply for. We only offer 12 hours and be careful some hospitals here in Texas only interview BSN graduates.

Hi, You will fit in great! There are so many psych pts in the ER these days and most ER nurses love it when they have a nurse with psych experience. I was an ER nurse for four years now I'm a psych ER nurse for two years. I think I would have done better going your route psych then to ER. Good luck!

Hi, I work in a Psych ER and the one thing that you need is patience. That is what I struggle with sometimes. Because you can see the same patients over and over again like a revolving door and it wears you down emotionally and physically.

Psych ER in Dallas Texas depends on how many nurses we have for the night the normal number is 4 pts to one nurse but that rarely happens so we have been getting 8 pts to one nurse and this is a Psych ER with very sick pts.
