YooHoo! I am joining the HH ranks!

by Limik

Hey all. I am very excited to announce that I will soon be joining your ranks as an official HH nurse ! I have been an LPN for 15 years and will be doing HH for the first time. Is it crazy to be super excited and terrified at the same time?! I have really enjoyed the thread on a typical day in the life of a HH nurse. It really helped me to decide that this is something I wanted to pursue. Well, wish me luck and thank you all for the the great info .

Good luck to you!!! HH will be such a new exciting adventure for you. It is a different type of nursing...the only one for me. You'll love the flexibility, independence and the one-on-one time. Much more challenging than most people think - but VERY rewarding. Let us know how it goes

Congrats, Limik! I'm in the same situation:LPN, just accepted a home health job after a lot of years LTC/rehab.
Will start soon, just not sure when (same company, transfer/ lateral move. DON won't let me go til after state survery) I'm excited, and a bit (well, Ok a LOT! ) nervous about a whole new area of nursing

We'll go on this journey together, how about that???

Congrats joyfjnoyz ! Hope things go well with the new position. I am currently starting week #2 of my new position. Have to admit, learning Home Health can be a little (OK make that a LOT!!!) intimidating, but I am hanging in there. Looking forward to getting into a routine and feeling more comfy with my new resposibilities. Plz keep me posted on how things are going.
