Requires 2 weeks notice?

[NewTexasRN]

I started a per diem position 4 weeks ago as a substitute school nurse. I currently work full time hrs at one school. I found a full time position and would like to move on. My start date is flexible for the new job. Should I give the standard 2 weeks notice? I'm leaving the position because I need benefits and don't want to scramble in the summer for a job. I am the only nurse in the building. I want to be professional and do the right thing. Thank you.

...at least two weeks, even though you've only been there 4 weeks. It never hurts to NOT burn a bridge, and obviously they need people if you're working full time as a per diem.

There should be something in the policies that let you know the proper amount of notice to give. Two weeks would be the minimum, I'd think.
