Would getting a PRN position in a skilled nursing facility effect my qualification to get into my first RN Residency Position? I want to work PRN anywhere until I can get accepted into a residency program but I dont want it to disqualify me for the required, "Less than a yr experience" for a residency program. Im not sure if this is less than a year exp in acute care or any position as an RN. Anyone have the same question & concern yet found their way around it? Appreciate my Fishbowl nurses!

i actually did this exact thing. started PRN at a skilled nursing facility while i finished my BSN and made sure to put my two weeks in before i had been there for a year and now have been accepted to my first choice RN residency position. The interviewers actually seemed to like it a bit more that i had some experience and had the NCLEX under my belt as well as a few extra certifications that i managed to pick up along the way!

I would not mind working in skilled nursing facility or a remote job so I can scope out places Id like to work & live before making the 2 yr commitments these hospitals want for their bonus plus another 2 yrs for using their tuition reimbursement. Thank you for sharing!

I worked as a nurse at a jail before applying to a couple fellowships. I think it depends on the hospital because where I work now said the jail experience didn’t qualify me for the fellowship but I was qualified for the residency. They had me reapply for the residency. And that’s where I’m at now.

I loved working at the jail. It’s really just about figuring out the population and not letting them manipulate them.

Just don’t put the nursing home experience on your resume if you end up working for more than 6 months
