Thanks
I like my home health private duty job that I got after graduating. I didn't think I would get to experiance too much to be honest, but after I started cases I got to work with trachs, vents, g-tubes, meds, wounds, caths, sp tubes, colostomys, and much more. It is def a low stress job and a great way to get personal care skills and basic nursing skills down.
My pay started at $17.50/hr on day shift and had a $2 night shift differential (This is in the rockingham co area close to the northern WV line)
I'm not sure what you are asking for in the 3rd question.
