Any advice for a nurse trying to re-enter healthcare after being away from the bedside for 4 years? I had 19 years in ICU/CVICU before leaving and am having difficulty getting a job...
DO YOU REALLY WANT TO GO BACK TO WORKING IN AN ICU /CVCU??? IF NOT CHECK OUT ALL THE OPEN NURSING JOBS IN YIOUR LOCAL HOSPITALS’ COMMUNITY WHERE YOU LIVE AND APPLY FOR ANOTHER JOB THAT PEAKS YOUR INTEREST.
FOUR YEARS ISN'T THAT LONG TO NOT BE WORKING AS AN RN. I’D TRY LOOKING AT ALL THE OTHER NURSING JOBS IN YHOUR AREA AND CHOOSE TO INTERVIEW FOR A CHANGE OF PACE.
I HOPE YOU FIND SOMETHING YHOIU ENJOY. PATIENCE WILL BE IN YOUR FAVOR.
I have same situation. I had 3 yrs experience in dialysis in the Philippines. Migrated here in California year 2016. Work as a CNA then LVN 2017-2019. I got pregnant, was not able to go back to work because no one will take care of my son. Now his 4 and is ready for preschool. Been looking for a job but cant find one.
