Calling Nurses Back to the Field Ramona Salotti, RN, BS, Nursingspectrum.com:"We came from throughout the Philadelphia area, 30 women who shared a common bond: We all were inactive registered nurses. Our reasons for leaving the profession were similar, and familiar — family commitments, professional frustrations, better opportunities in other fields. But the nursing shortage had inspired many of us to reconsider our commitment, and the conference “Re-Discover Nursing,” hosted by NurseSponsorsTM, brought us together." http://community.nursingspectrum.com/MagazineArticles/article.cfm?AID=9742
Freshen Up with a Nurse Refresher Course
Valerie Kordowski, RN, BSN:"Are you tired of saying you “used to be a nurse?” If so, your first step may be to take a nurse refresher course. It can be just what you need to put your nursing career back on track.
Whether your current nursing license is inactive or lapsed, your state board of nursing requires you to take a nurse refresher course to return to active status, and any nurse can take a refresher course. “The backgrounds and situations represented by RNs who’ve taken our course are incredibly varied,” says Virginia Moore, RNC, MSN, WHNP, office of lifelong learning coordinator for the Back to the Future: Renewing RNs course at Vanderbilt University School of Nursing in Nashville, TN. “The youngest person to take our course was 30 years old [and] the most mature was 75. Some have active licenses but have not been involved in bedside care in the hospital setting for several years. Others have inactive or lapsed licenses due to involvement in other careers, home-making responsibilities, or retirement.”
Hospital Mentors and College Bring RNs Back to the Workforce, Carol Bartolotti, RN, C, MPA:"You’ve been out of clinical nursing for at least 15 years, but you’d like to return to work on a medical/surgical unit. Where do you go first? You’ve heard about refresher courses and know that they might be your answer. You head to your local hospital and investigate the possibilities.
If you came to Nyack Hospital in Nyack, NY, you’d find that we’ve formed a partnership with Rockland County’s only community college and developed a refresher course for RNs. This course, designed to familiarize inactive RNs with the current acute care environment, begins with a four-hour classroom/skills laboratory orientation that covers topics such as infection control and fire safety, followed by five eight-hour clinical days. We have course instructors and assigned hospital staff as clinical mentors."

Help me get my nursing license back from 12-step nuts:"I am truly in a bind. Approximately 13 years ago, the Board of Nursing revoked my license for diversion of drugs. I hit rock bottom and decided on my own that this was over forever. I have been abstinent of narcotics since that time. I started a consulting business which has been fairly successful. I deal only with law firms. Last year, discussions with several law firms re medical/legal consulting prompted me to attempt to obtain my license back so that I could expand to include this new area." ******************************************************
How you can reenter the job market:"As an OR nurse, Marie Torlincasi, RN, was making good money. But when she started her family, she quit her job. Although she knew it might be hard to get back into the profession later, she was willing to take her chances." ****************************************************** ****************************************************** For Health Information you can use, Follow, Connect, Like us on (Most Invites Accepted): http://www.nursefriendly.com/social/:
