Anybody have any ideas where to look.i live in the dallas area and ive applied to 100 places and nothing....
No one has mentioned this but I have noticed many nursing homes trying to get away from the 16 hour double. Many no find enough Part Timers and such to avoid long shifts. Apparently there is an abundance of research out there concerning the danger of 16 hour shifts and how it leads to errors, mistakes and lapses in judgment.
Never actually saw the research myself but even my facility has limited OT to a 4 hour shift instead of an 8 hours shift. Shrug.
