NOC. Tomorrow is my first NOC shift ever...well, ever as a nurse. It only took me several years to get here.
You know that informal interview I had earlier this week? Well, they liked me enough to decide I'm worth training and are going to spring for the training . They talked to my manager, who authorized the crisis management course I'll have to take and will pick up that cost. I'm being invested in...it's a nice feeling.
I train this weekend, and if they're satisfied with my performance, I'll be able to pick up NOCs there whenever I want. There's a few psych units with a nice mix of populations, including that psych-medical unit that I've been trying to get on for a few years now. I won't get to choose where I go--I'll be sent wherever I'm needed...which is perfectly fine with me. It's just nice to have a new location to get work at.
So I need to get myself into the NOC time-mindset...guess I'll be staying up a little later than usual tonight.
