New Job

After some nail biting reverses, I have accepted a position on the med/surg telemetry unit (how's that for a noun string?) at St. David's South Austin Hospital. It is about 8 minutes drive from home outside of rush hour. It is full time and Days Only. Hooray!

I am interviewing nanny-type people at the moment, and have met a lovely UT grad who is waiting to start medical school in 2011.

St David's is instituting a new uniform policy on April 5th whereby all the staff in different colored scrubs according to their jobs. RNs will wear navy blue tops and bottoms with the words "Registered Nurse" embroidered on the front.

I will start at the end of March, with one week's corporate orientation and then a nursing induction of a few weeks mixed with ward work to follow.
