Job application question LTAC/SNF/LTC?Rating: (votes: 0) My question is on job applications for hospital, many of them ask if you have acute care experience, does long term acute care count? On those pre-quailfy questions I always answer no, as I always invisioned acute care as a hospital setting, do hospital look at LTAC as skilled nursing or consider it acute care even though it is long term. I would love to be able to answer yes and then maybe my application would actually get looked at, but I don't want to misrepresent myself. I would put yes the qualify with it is LTAC exp.. It is acute care only in an extended length of stay setting. It is not ICU though what I have seen it can be more intensive then some step down units, not all but some. I did infection control/employee health for LTAC and it walked like, quacked like a hospital to me but mine was inside a hospital. I visited a patient once in LTAC self standing and it felt LTCish. Hope this helps. |
