I’ve decided to take a class to become IV certified in the hopes of landing a part time job administering intravenous fluids to people usually in the comfort of their own home. Those are the job descriptions I’ve seen thus far on various job boards. It sounds interesting and something I would enjoy doing. I’m not looking to leave the my job here at the school, I love what I’m doing here. I’m hoping for a part time gig maybe on the weekends but not every weekend. Yes I’m picky.
I’m also looking into maybe…maybe…maybe learning how to do cosmetic injections for example Botox to name the most common. There are many other cosmetic injectables I don’t know them all off hand. I’ve looked into becoming certified in that area of nursing as well. But…most employers require so many years of experience performing that type of work. So it becomes a merry go ‘round of you need experience but no one will hire you because you don’t have experience. We shall see. I’m thinking the fall would be good timing for the training.
As of this moment, what’s next is having a few days off and then summer session begins. I really don’t mind working summer. My school is a 12 month program so we go year round. Summer session is 6 weeks and then we are off almost 3 weeks before school begins in September. Summer is a little different than the regular school year. The people who do work want to be here. And there are staff from other sites who will work at my school for the summer that you’re able to meet and that is always a plus. nice.
