I have worked in the clinic setting for 5 years, 4 as a Patient Care Assistant, and 1 as an LPN. I am about done with the politics of the company and the constant short-staff situation. We have a 2 doc clinic and they fired the other nurse last week without having a back-up plan in place. The parent company has no floats available at this time, so I'm taking care of 50 patients a day, plus phone calls, med refills and referrals. I have been told if I can't handle the pace on my own, I should consider a different job. Okay.
So, since I have never had any hospital experience, will it be difficult to interview for Home Health? We have a company here that does home IV infusion and I'm very interested in that, but wondering if they will want RN's only. If any of you have Home Health experience, I would love to hear from you.
Thanks!!
