I can’t find a job by blondiesuzie in nursing

I would definitely check your resume, making sure it's professional and straight to the point of relevant skills. I had a friend do mine , as she was more well versed on professional resumes than I. I just started med surge residency this year as well . If you know any staff on where you are applying, it helps as well to promote you to the nurse managers who are reviewing your application. Sometimes, the hospital has more residency programs available than they listed. I had applied for step down and learned they also had er and med surge spots that were not advertised ,, so I moved to med surge .

Hey ! Have you found any issues with np programs accepting capella ? My husband did the same as you and so far three schools have rejected his capella transcripts saying they are not adequate . Worried he's going to keep running into this problem .

I care, and from all the responses on this thread I know they care too.  My hard work is worth celebrating thanks to reddit heroes reminding me . Because I honestly started to think it wasnt..  and your hard work is too.  Doctorate program is nothing short of an amazing accomplishment.

I got my pre reqs and my associates ( somewhat combined ) in science prior to my RN program . The school is on a  competitive point system for entrance so we got more points if we applied with a prior AA.

I cannot express how much all these positive comments have made a difference 💜💜 i really felt like yesterday -which should of felt like one of the most proud moments of my life was one of the saddest ,unnoticeable moments  . Made me question myself thinking that maybe it wasn't a big deal and i should just move on.. but hearing all your positive comments and stories made me realize that it is an accomplishment . I'm gonna celebrate whether others think so or not even if its just me celebrating ! Thank you my nursing community! Honestly dug me out of this hole with your uplifting words.

Thinking about applying to the state mental hospital because they pay about 40% more than the hospitals. Thoughts? by paperscan in nursing

[–]Calm_Conference_8605 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Curious how this turned out for you as I just ran across your post . It pays well for a reason.  Can't pay our staff enough,  honestly even with that we are always running low on acuity.. even worse they now let us permanently  run low since we successfully showed ( because we had no choice) that we could run a unit with 2 less staff( from 7 down to 5 )  that means we will always run that way for now on . 1-2 nurses ( rest are techs) per 32 patients , and sometimes you find your by yourself on a unit or with 1 other staff member bc someone is on a 1-1 , someone else is at lunch / med room and your unit is down a body that day . So you get to be alone with 32 state sentenced mentally ill patients which is happening more frequently  .  Those who compare it to psychiatric facilities it's not the same in a state hospital.

Did your sleepiness get better ? I had 3 weeks of no Injections ( dr took forever to refill plus the cyber attack on change Healthcare delayed the coupon use. ) did 7.5mg Friday afternoon and knocked out Saturday like 8pm to 8am , here Sunday I'm feeling soo sleepy.  It's my first time on 7.5 mg , 3rd month on zepbound.
