Dec 20, 201312 yr First nursing job. Wondering how would a schedule look if hired for 2-12hr a wk with eow nights?
Dec 20, 201312 yr Experts No idea. It could be anything. You would have to ask the employer.What are eow nights?
Dec 20, 201312 yr Author Wrote it incorrect. 2 days a wk -12 hr shift nights with every other weekend. On orientation now, days. But was just wondering how would a schedule look. Guess I will just have to wait. Just alittle eager and anxious.

Guess I will just have to wait. Just alittle eager and anxious.Did they not tell you which days you would be working?So based on what you have said you will be working 2 12s during the week and every other weekend.
Dec 20, 201312 yr One of your shifts will always be a weekend if you're only working 2 days. Either Saturday or Sunday. Each employer is different - some allow you to self-schedule, some will assign you randomly and you may get the same two days each week. If you're already on orientation, ask some of the other nurses how the schedule is done or sit down with your manager and ask :)
Dec 21, 201312 yr Author Thanks. Helpful information. And that's what I'll do. We have a scheduler and I'm told they're flexible. I will ask. Thanks again.
Dec 21, 201312 yr It's unlikely you'd get this as a new grad, but I'd try to work Fri, Sat, Sun, Mon around my every other weekend so I'd have 4 days on, 10 days off. I worked with a charge nurse who did this but she had a LOT of seniority. More likely you'll work one day during the week, work your weekend, work one day during the week, repeat.

But yeah, I wouldn't qualify.
