  1. Mileage question--is this the norm??

    Yes, I think you are right. My main concern is that I live in a congested urban area, and I am afraid I will sit in traffic for an hour with no compensation for time or mileage. All for a one-hour visit for which I will be paid $30. I believe there i...
  2. Mileage question--is this the norm??

    "Time spent by an employee in travel as part of their principal activity, such as travel from job site to job site during the workday, is work time and must be counted as hours worked." That's interesting...not just in my case, but for all home h...
  3. Mileage question--is this the norm??

    I recently accepted a position as an RN for a company that provides "personal care" for seniors. My job involves driving to their homes to complete an assessment and care plan, and to supervise the CNAs who are providing the care. The job pays $30/ho...
  4. Pay Rate For Personal Care Agency RN?

    I have an interview next week with a new start-up company that provides in-home personal care services for the elderly. No skilled nursing. This prn RN position involves creating and updating care plans and supervising the CNAs. It is a 1099 position...
  5. A question about Inova...and one about Kaiser

    Thank you! It was very helpful to hear from someone with first ( and second) hand knowledge of what the job is like. I also have an ADN, but I don't have any experience with triage. All my experience has been as a charge nurse in SNF/LTC. The main ...
  6. A question about Inova...and one about Kaiser

    Two questions: 1. Does anyone have any idea how much a "Patient Registration Rep" position at Inova pays? I am having trouble finding a job, so I am considering applying for this position since it has health benefits. 2. Has anyone ever worked as an ...
  7. No LTC jobs??

    I was there for 8 years, and it was in another state. When I first interviewed for the job there was a nursing shortage, and Nurses could pretty much pick and choose where they wanted to work. How things change!
  8. No LTC jobs??

    The issue is that the applications are asking for a salary history. They aren't asking what I would like to make. Trust me, at this point I am really willing to negotiate! Unfortunately, on the online application, there is no room for any comments ab...
  9. No LTC jobs??

    Thanks. I also noticed that the Cameron Glen and Commonwealth facilities suddenly stopped listing positions on the Inova website. One day there were positions listed...the next day, nothing. Makes me wonder what's going on with the sale of those two ...
  10. No LTC jobs??

    I've been looking for a job for over a month now, and still nothing. I've only been called for one interview, and I am trying to figure out why. I am looking for a job in LTC, and have several years of experience as an RN in that field. I've submitt...
  11. Manor Care Questions

    Thanks for the responses. i was wondering whether I would be pushing a cart, or if it was an actual supervisory position. It's good to hear that not all Manor Care facilities are nightmarish! Thanks.
  12. Manor Care Questions

    I am looking at job listings, and I see that Manor Care has several openings for "RN Nurse Supervisor." Does anyone know whether this is just ManorCare-ese for plain 'ole charge nurse/floor nurse, or if it is a bonafide supervisory position (i.e. sup...
  13. Inova --> selling two of their nursing homes??

    Thanks, Lunah. Guess I'll hold off on applying there for now...the large numbers of vacant positions kind of raises a red flag with me anyway. Appreciate your response, though!
  14. Inova --> selling two of their nursing homes??

    I've heard that Inova is in the process of selling two nursing homes--Cameron Glen and Commonwealth--to another company. I am interested in applying to these places, but I am wondering who is buying them (i.e is it Manor Care? ) Does anyone know? Y...
  15. Hawaii RN new to Kailua Kona area and internet networking

    I agree that the island of Hawaii is a beautiful place to visit, as are all the Hawaiian islands. However, there is an enormous difference between visiting and "living, working, and retiring" there. I lived in Hawaii for the past eight years, and rec...
