You see I finally managed to get interviewed at Trenton Psych (after countless messages and emails to the recruiter), and got the same conditional offer that starts jan 2009. IamRN08, I have formally withdrawn my application from Ancora. if you come to anocora let me know and perhaps we can connect. Good luck with your decision and let us know what you decide. The only thing I am having a hard time with now is finding a civil service exam study book because you have to take that exam working at a state facility. As you pointed out we make a great salary for a 3 day work week and the benefits are great. I also drive close to an hour and would love to be at the Trenton hosp, but it is what it is and I did choose to go to ancora. All and all I *wanted* to work there and could have worked anywhere and was offered other position. So they start off disgruntled and I think it just goes down from there.

Plus they are not eligible for any benefits.

It was pretty eye opening to see that they can't get full time right off the bat and they are pretty much at the mercy of the hours they are given which isn't easy if you are still working another job until you get full time there. I have to say that after sitting with them today and hearing what they deal with I can understand where some of them come from. I was also worried about the support staff stuff that I heard. They made it very clear that there are changes that have recently taken place and that the transition is not over by far. I just started at ancora today with a handful of other nurses.

I really need to start working since my husband just got laid off, but I don't want to put my life and limb and license at risk either. Hopefully, he has made some improvements to the working and patient conditions in that place. There was news about a new chief taking over. My husband has been there and disapproves of me even interviewing. My question is, does anybody have new info on the working environment there since the shakedown and revamp that arose after all that bad press earlier in the year/last year? I googled the hospital and most of the info was bad press which makes me scared to even set foot in the place (that may explain why they need nurses for such a nice salary:$59K++ for new staff). Ancora is a state hospital as well (good benefits and pay). I really wanted to work at Trenton Psychiatric Hospital near where I live, but they were not hiring anybody new. Now, as every new grad RN in NJ/PA/NY knows, there is a major new RN GLUT in NJ, so I did not hesitate to say YES though it is not med/surg and the hospital is more than 60 minutes away. Went to a nurse fair and Ancora Psychiatric Hospital recruiter was there and immediately offered to scheduled me for an interview.
