  1. Independent EMR Nurse Consultants?

    Are there any independent EMR (electronic medical record) Nurse consultants out there? It looks as if it's been awhile since anyone has been active in this board under new convos and I wanted to start one. It seems as if there are many nurses working...
  2. Relocating to NH...advice please

    Hi, I see this post is a bit old. I'm wondering if you ended up moving, if you are working at Dartmouth? How have things worked out for you? I am in NC and looking to move NORTH! I am undecided on Maine, NY, NH or Vermont. HA! The places are all so d...
  3. I just wanted to follow up. I don't see a lot of responses. Not sure if that's good or bad. I am also interested in moving to Vermont and am wondering about wages, working conditions, etc. I know a few people say that they work in VT and commute to N...
  4. Interview Tues, leaving ICU for LTC

    To clarify :) The director interviewed me for the position. HR is the one who offers the job and discusses salary. I've been told that it's unprofessional to discuss salary during the interview. The director told me that my salary would be based on ...

  7. Interview Tues, leaving ICU for LTC

    Wow you guys, thanks for all the input. Just a few things. I will be still working weekend nights. I'll be doing 2 16 hour shifts plus 1 8hour shift every other week. Also, the LTC/Rehab is owned by a reputable hospital so benefits/ time off are the ...
  8. Interview Tues, leaving ICU for LTC

    Yeah, thanks guys! I really was hoping for more specialized care, etc do more for each patient. But, really, it's so much more charting that I have LESS time with the patients and their families and I come across looking like a mean person because I ...

    You go for it. You can have that ED. I have to say, the best thing about ED is always having a MD right there. Thanks for the reply. And, best of luck to you!
  10. Interview Tues, leaving ICU for LTC

    Hey guys. It's been awhile since I've been on this forum. I wanted to just stop by. I live in NC. I've done all aspects and realms of acute care nursing that I can bare anymore. I've worked peds hem/onc, general peds, labor and delivery, newborn nurs...
  11. Hey you guys, I've been a nurse 6 years and just recently started in the ICU. I'm doing well with all the assessments, skills,etc. It's hard for me to find words for my family members dealing with the death of their loved one and after their loved on...
  12. Undecided on Shadowing after job interview

    I used to work for Rex PRN on their mother/baby unit and I really really liked working for them. As far as shadowing goes, they cannot and will not ask you to do anything to or for the patients. While shadowing, that's only what you are doing, you ar...

    This actually sounds like fun to me...but I'm OCD so, I can see myself going nuts with post-its and highlighters :) Ahhhh to think of an actual office and desk for these things!!!!
  14. Pregnancy and nursing

    Dang, an entire year? That's wild and unheard of. Wow, I just started back to work after taking 2 weeks off ---I couldn't afford to take time without pay. Luckily my dear husband is wonderful with the kids while I'm at work!!! Otherwise, I'd be up cr...
