The hard parts

  • The 4.3 Glassdoor rating on those Lansing LPN listings is for University of Michigan as a whole, not for Sparrow itself.

What to ask

  • How is base pay set for the role, and which differentials apply?
  • Which shifts are open, and what are the weekend, holiday and call rules?
  • How long is orientation, and will I have one preceptor?
  • What is the usual patient load, and how often do nurses float?
  • Which hospital or site, and which unit, would I work on?

From nurses, to nurses

Ask the question, even if you asked it yesterday. Being embarrassed for a minute beats spending the whole shift unsure.

On asking for help

Coming off orientation doesn't mean you stop asking for help. Find out who you can go to before the shift gets busy.
