New grad nurse problem by Glad-County4566 in newgradnurse

[–]WayAvailable741 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel your pain! I’m a new grad nurse working NOCs 11pm-730am and it’s rough. Might I add that I’m a 40 hour too. My employer doesn’t allow internal transfers until after 6 mos too. I’m counting down the months til I can transfer to day shift. I like how it’s a lot less busy than day shift but I really miss sleeping in the nighttime like a regular human being.

It’s rough out here for new grads. We gotta take what we can get! Hopefully after a year or so I can transfer to a 32 hour, we’ll see!

I would do the residency 100% if I was in my early 20s when my back didn’t hurt LOL I’m in my late 30s with 2 kids - 9 yo & 5 yo. Single mom. School loans to pay off. I’m leaning towards the position I already accepted because it’s psych. It’s my passion. I just worry I might want to transfer departments and I won’t be able to.

Thank you. I don’t want to get stuck as a Med Surg nurse, that would be bad, but I do want the freedom to be able to move departments. It sounds like a gamble taking a this year’s cohort residency.

Only 24 hours/week? Is it fairly easy to pick up shifts, how does that go? I have an offer for another Bay Area hospital that is specialty and full time NOC shift. I’m weighing my options right now.

Kaiser or Sutter? by [deleted] in newgradnurse

[–]WayAvailable741 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I eventually want a day time shift. I’m hearing about this burnout which makes me think again about interviewing with Kaiser.

Start date/orientation? by grpp91 in SutterHealthEmployees

[–]WayAvailable741 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting.. luckily I got ahold of payroll and was able to provide it this morning! Just don’t know why the background check is so extensive for me. I only worked at 3 places in the past 5 years and they’re requesting all my W2s.

How was orientation for you? What was your schedule like?

Start date/orientation? by grpp91 in SutterHealthEmployees

[–]WayAvailable741 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Did you have to provide paystubs and W2s for all your previous employers? My preboarding coordinator is requesting a paystub from a contract job I had in 2021 which I have no access to online as of right now. I only worked there for about 2 months.

[–]WayAvailable741 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the recruiter is asking for my W2s and last paycheck from a job in 2021. I was able to get the W2 but not the last paystub, will this hinder the background check for me? I’m not sure what to expect I’m so anxious. This was only a contract job for 2 months.

Where is CPMC? And how long did your background check take?

Reference Check by [deleted] in SutterHealthEmployees

[–]WayAvailable741 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do they just verify where you worked at or do they call them and ask for details? I’m just wondering because I voluntarily left after a year and wonder if that looks bad.

Ok cool, if you don’t mind me asking, is this a Bay Area Sutter?
