wanting to go back to work
Nancy,
You have a pulse, right? And a license? Are you kidding? You can get a job working on a med/surg floor by tomorrow!!! You'll be surprised at how much you still know. It's mostly common sense, anyway. Just take the time to look up the new meds as you give them and you're home free!!!
Thank goodness for the nursing shortage, it's so easy to find a job!!

They WILL hire you as long as you are licensed... Just tell the recruiter that you will need a good orientation to "renew" your skills. It's like the proverbial bicycle... the only thing you might take some time to brush up on is pharmacology, and you can buy the textbooks and review that on your own ... the rest will fall right into place Good Luck!!
