Unit Secretary?

Published

Specializes in OR Internship starting in Jan!!.

Who is in charge of the unit secretaries? I want to try to get a job as a unit secretary, but I'm not even sure who I need to talk to about it.

Thanks :)

I would talk to the nurse manager of the unit you were interested in.

Ah, so I need to pick the specialty? I didn't know if there was someone who was over all of the unit secretaries. Do all specialties have unit secretaries? So I could try to get L&D or NICU?

Specializes in ER.

When I work as a unit secretary thier was one person who did all the hiring for all the departments. That was the nurse manager. You can always ask the charge nurse who does that hiring becasue they are the superivisor's over the unit secretary.

Specializes in NICU, Psych, Education.

Did you put in an application and resume with HR?

Call HR, they love nursing or prenursing students most places.

I am a pre nursing student and I applied for a unit secretary position but the HR representative told me that I need to have experience. I have lot of experience in clerical jobs but never worked in a hospital before.

Any idea which hospital should apply? I applied already to UT Southwestern and childrens hospitals. Thanks.

Yes I do, try Baylor Irving. I just got hired there (I have no previous experience at all. I believe they have other unit secretary positions, and also at another Baylor Hospital in dallas. Call 817-835-5451. Ask them if they know of any unit secretary positions in their network.

Skittlez, thank you for your information but the number is incorrect I think.

Credit union from forth worth pick up the phone when i called.
