- Dec 29, '12 by idobelieveYou don't feel this is too much and a possible risk of losing your license?
- Dec 31, '12 by LTCRN4LIFEI'd say it depends on what you have to do. How many Skilled? Do you have to attend all IDT meetings? Wound Rounds? Staffing? MDS's?
- Dec 31, '12 by idobelieveTheir are 60 skilled, 60 long term,attend all meetings, make wound rounds, no staffing or MDS

The number of residents isn't your problem. I suspect your problem is that you don't have a clear outline of what your job responsibilities will be. Until you really know the job expectations you can't possibly know if you can do the job. - Jan 1 by Havin' A Party!Quote from Nascar nurseRemember: you won't know what is REALLY required until you're on the job....

What they say at the pre-hire sessions often means very little. Be careful!
