I was wondering if anyone here has experience in a job with the Health Department.?

--I would like to know if I it was difficult getting a nursing job with a government agency.
--And which ones are best or easiest to obtain
--Last but not least~~how long before an employee is vested and will receive health benefits after retirement?
If you can't see where I am going with this thought, let me explain~~~
~~ I will retire in about 7 years. As a nurse I don't have a big pension and my health benefits will be a big chunk of my funds. I thought a job with the government would help if I could work for benefits.
Anyone with thoughts or help in my situation?

Public Health Departments have a shortage of nurses. You need enough experience to qualify which is the most difficult thing to get.

Vesting depends on the agency you work for. Usually you vest at a minimal level at 5 years and it goes up from there.

Thanks. Report It
