taking a refresher course

Published

Hi, I have been working in the nursing field since passing the boards...about five years. I want to work in the hospital though and can't seem to get a job there. Has snyone taken a refresher course and gotten a hospital job out if it? I don't want to spend the money if it is not going to help me. Any advice? Thanks in advance...

Are you working in home health?

Yes...

If you are employed in nursing, a refresher course won't necessarily be beneficial for getting a job and working in home health won't help you to get a hospital job. If you don't have a BSN, getting one would be beneficial.

I do have my BSN. I live in northern cali. Moving out of state has been a thought but my kids are older and I would miss them so much. Do you think my age is hurting me? I am 43?
