Hi
Im a post graduated in nursing since about 12 yrs . I didn't work since my graduation due to marriage then having kids and raising them. Now i want to get back to work is there any hope ??!!

Hi RN Recruiter – I want to go back to school for the rn to bsn and would like to know what you think about the online courses colleges are offering now. Are they worth it? I would think they were since we can’t just quit our job to go back to school but really want to know if the courses are accepted everywhere. That is my main concern. I don’t want to be told they will be accepted only to find out later they won’t. If you can help I would appreciate it!

I graduated in May 2011 with my BSN. I have passed my boards and worked for 2 months in critical care when I was let go (it is a right to work state). The reason my manager stated I was discharged was because a nurse complained that she saw me using my cell phone in a patients room, although I had already explained to my manager that I had let a patients daughter use my cell phone to inform her family that the pt was being moved to a new unit. The phone in the room wasnt working, and I could not get the phone at the nurses station to call out either, so I let her use my phone and had to explain to her how to use it. The nurse that reported me had a personal issue with me, and it went to the top and I was let go, even though I told my manager prior to the complaint. I graduated at the top of my class (3.8 gpa) and with honors. I am having serious difficulty finding a job! I have filled out probably 50+ applications, sent off as many resumes, etc. I am about to start calling recruiters and unit managers, but I do not know how to explain my recent discharge. How do you suppose I sell myself to these people despite being discharged after only 2 months? What should I say, do? Please help!!

I am an international student currently studying nursing in LA. I was just wondering if US hospitals or other places provide working visas or permanent residency. I would really like to work in this country after I graduate, at least for a couple of years.

ask a recruiter
What advice can you offer for salary negotiations? I am a nurse manager and it's difficult pricing yourself, I know the hours are well over 40 and you don't get paid more so how do I find out a fair salary?
Thanks,
Bonnie
