Hi everyone I am a new grad recently offered an RN position at the VA hospital I currently work as a tech at, on a med surg unit. I also have an offer for John Muir new grad program on a telemetry unit.
I like where I currently work as everyone is nice and the commute is about 30-45 minutes. However, I am not sure if I am taking interest to the veteran patient population anymore. John Muir is about 60-70 minutes away but the pay is about $15~/hr more. Both 12 hour night shifts.
I am wondering what would be best for growth as a new grad? And if that commute would be worth the money/experience. I precepted on a med/surg unit so I am also wondering how the telemetry learning curve would be. Eventually, I would like to transfer to an emergency department position.
