  2. Do Nurses Earn Big Money? You Decide.

  4. So lets say that John Doe wants to hire me and pay me out of his pocket to be his child's nurse. We agree to certain terms and rates. I am now my own boss...I do report the income to the IRS at the end of the year. I have my own liability insurance....
  5. Is it legal to rewrite nursing notes 3 months later?

  8. Cost of New Grads? Dont understand!

  10. Total Disregard for Visiting Hours

    Yeah..personally...I HATE being watched too...It's distracting when i'm trying to focus on what I am doing...not put on a show. Ironically...I have found the cure for that is to LET them watch..show them the good care you do and that you have nothing...

    CapeCod: Get the MD signature tatted on your chest too, ROFL.
  15. Just tattoo DNR on my chest. . . it's been done!

    It could work if it was done in a universal way....meaning, the Govt or some agency would create a specific symbol and location for the Tattoo....and then do the necessary PR work so that all need to know medical personal would know what to look for ...
