What resources are there when your health system closes your ASC?? Our surgery center was shut down with less than 30 days notice. After 25 yrs I don’t want to go back to floor nursing. I carry the family’s benefits.

GO SEE HR TEAM STAT. PRESENTATION BETTER THAN CALL OR EMAIL TO SHOW DESIRE & IMMEDIATE NEED FOR THEIR SPECIALTY.

INVESTIGATE INVESTIGATE. INVESTIGATE:

1. What has HR put into play in preparation to assist the displaced employees.

2. I find it doubtful, however, in HR was not kept abreast of the closure, what have they since put into play to assist the displaced employees.

3. What positions are posted per HR.
What positions yet to be posted are options.

4. CROSS -TRAINING. CROSS -TRAINING. CROSS - TRAINING..
Health System offer this option?
Cross - Training been an active component of Health System?
In light of unanticipated and unwanted closure and displacement,
perhaps this has been put on the table as a proponent of recovery
plan for displaced personnel.

5. Health System entail more than one campus ... Clinics off campus.
Driving to an alternate campus within system a feasible option, i.e.
won't create new hardship..

6. RESUME:
SECURE REFERENCES.
HIGHER TITLE OR POSITION WITHIN YOUR HEALTH SYSTEM BETTER.
SUPERVISOR..PHYSICIANS.. PROVIDERS.. ANESTHESIOLOGISTS...
Those who can speak to your work ethics, standards, quality..
TOOT YOUR OWN HORN, ESP IF A GREAT # ARE NOW DISPLACED!
YOU WANT NEXT SUPERVISORS TO KNOW WHY TO SELECT YOU...
WHY THEY NEED YOU..
WHAT YOU CAN BRING TO TABLE AS POSITIVE IMPACT ON TEAM.

7. THINK OUTSIDE YOUR BOX:
INFECTION CONTROL...
EDUCATION..
CASE MANAGEMENT..
QA...UM...

8. * THINK, WHAT HAVE YOU SEEN, LEARNED ABOUT, WHEN YOUR
POSITION WAS SECURE THAT MADE YOU THINK, AND ESPECIALLY
SAY OUT LOUD:
"HUMMM... THAT SEEMS INTERESTING / DIFFERENT/ FUN..."

THINK: INSERVICE S YOU HAD.....
FELLOW NURSES SPEAKING TO THEIR. JOB...

9. * REACH OUT TO NURSES YOU KNOW IN AREA OF INTEREST OR POTENTIAL PLACEMENT TO GET SPECIFIC DETAILS ON THE JOB.

10. A. * WHAT IS THE SISTER-JOB TO ASC: PACU? PRE-OP??
Do those interest you? poss cross train option you'd like?

10. B. * ASC''s COUSIN-JOB: PRIMARY CARE TEAM CLINICS. OR ..
THE AFOREMENTIONED CLINICS THAT ARE A PART OF YOUR
HEALTH SYSTEM THAT ARE IN COMMUNITY, OFF
CAMPUS.. .

10. C. * QUES./THOUGHT= WHERE ARE THE PATIENTS SEEN IN ASC
COMING FROM PRE-OP,
RETURNING TO POST OP????
DOCTORS WITHIN YOUR HEALTH SYSTEM?? POSS JOB THERE???

THAT'S ALL I COULD COME UP WITH OFF TOP OF MY HEAD.

STAY IN PRAYER! DON'T GIVE UP!

BEST WISHES FINDING YOUR NEW NICHE!!!

There arent any if you want to stay in the health care system you are currently employed. Sorry to say you have no other option than to take another position within your system

I know it was devastating news, however it’s hope at the end of the tunnel. Have you tried looking into working in the community? Community health nursing is very fulfilling. Also working in OR maybe a great option as well.

Imo, humanity is experiencing massive changes and challenges. It is going to take out of the box thinking to get through this. If the current medical system collapses like many are predicting, health benefits will be useless. Focus on maintaining wellness and keep the immune system strong. Look for prn or part time work. Also, look for physicians that offer a concierge service. Network, I think those of us who have left the system will come together to offer our knowledge and expertise within our communities. I think this will apply to everyone in all industries.
