Friday, July 2nd, 201020 Great Tips for Finding a Job in Nursing
Sunday, May 30th, 2010
Last year, “Rachel” graduated from her nursing program and immediately began complaining about how hard it was to find a job in nursing. Six months later, she had landed a position as a school nurse, while friends with other career goals were still looking. Reality had slapped her in the face: In this economy, jobs in all career fields are scarce, but jobs in nursing are more plentiful than on many other career paths.
Indeed, for the past decade, every study has reached the same conclusion: Nursing is expected to continue adding jobs at an impressive rate, especially as the population grows older and people live long enough to encounter more physical ailments. And what variety there is for those wanting to be a nurse! There are positions in burn care, ambulatory care, emergency rooms, developmental disabilities, home care, geriatrics, medical telemetry, intensive care, mother / baby care, oncology, pediatrics, operating room, psychiatric nursing, recovery room, psychiatric nursing, rehabilitation, school nursing, hospital floor nurse, and more.

Nursing; The Profession and Recession – From Jacksonville Florida
Wednesday, May 20th, 2009Chances are you’ve been cared for at some time in your life by a nurse, but will there be enough nurses to go around when baby boomers hit retirement age?
WOKV’s Roxy Tyler works to answer those questions in her 3 part series that runs at 6:20am and 8:50am Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday on Jacksonville’s Morning News.

Careers in Medicine
Friday, May 15th, 2009A lot of people are turning to careers in medicine today because they know that they are paying well and that the weakened economy hasn’t stopped them from growing in popularity.
