I have 3 years experience as a CNA. 2 years as a unit clerk. 1 year as an LPN and just 1 month as an RN until I moved in the Portland metro area hoping to get a job in a hospital.I also just recently got an ACLS certification-thinking i'll be more "hireable". I'm still currently in the hunt for a job. I'm scared to stay in the long-term care field (more likely where I'll get hired) but it doesn't seem like there's a lot of options for new grads out there..I'm looking at getting a certificate in med-surge or ICU/PCU but it seems like from what I read, I need so and so working hours in the field that I choose to get certified in..I'm willing to take any classes for certifications just to prove I can work in a hospital, just not jump in the bachelor's/master's level yet though.Any suggestions? I already know about PALS but what else?It'll also help if you happen to know where I can take the class..Hospitals around here doesn't seem to have that option..I can't find any internships either..=c
