Should tell 'em I am leaving in person, or email?

Published

Hello all,

I am currently a per-diem RN in an ER and I just got hired into the same hospitals Special Care Nursery...

I am just wondering is it safe to say good bye and give my notice via email since I am per-diem and only work once a month, or should I take the time go there in person and do it??

The same hospital?

I'd call the manager. Maybe HR too so they know of movement from one dept to another.

HR already knows, they schedule the interview and called with the job offer.. all set there.

I cannot keep this position becase I HATE it!! I hate working in the ER! Even if I did not get this new job in the SCN I was planning on never going back there, especially after the shift I had last tuesday!

Ah, I got it. Sorry if I poked a sore spot with my suggestion! ;)

Nurses are professionals. Write a letter and present it to the manager in person. It always helps to leave a good impression and leave bridges intact for future use.
