  1. Shands Hospital / UF Health (Gainesville)

    Is anyone here familiar with UF health benefits specifically tuition reimbursement/ tuition waiver at UF? I want to be able to compare their education benefit to other organizations in Gainesville. Also if you have any idea about their nurse: patient...
  2. Perdiem as fulltime?

    I've done this for the past few years. Before I was married I paid for my insurance out of pocket, but still took home more than I would if I was full time. Now my husband takes care of the benefits.
  3. Charting Systems

    My current hospital uses Meditech....HATE IT,!! I think only the people who've never used anything else would actually like it. My last two hospitals used HEC (McKesson), now that I really liked...never used epic, but never heard anything bad either
  4. starting pay

    I was offered $24 with five year experience and a specialty certification in Gainesville.....not sure what new grads make, but if an experienced rate is that bad then the new grad rate must suck!
  5. Hello, I have never traveled before but I am considering it. The main thing I want to know is what happens if you don't complete a travel contract due to medical reasons (ex. Bedrest or preterm labor). I am moving to a town with only two hospital sys...
  6. Why I Love IV Nurses

    What part of the country do hospitals still have IV teams? It seems like they've gotten rid of them in the southeast (except children's hospitals). I've been an ER nurse for 5yrs and IV starts are my thing! I've come across very few Veins I couldn't ...

  9. What exactly is the trauma program coordinator responsible for? At my last job the trauma coordinator taught TNCC and the TNS class and did some quality assurance work, but aside from that she was never seen in the department. At my current job, it s...
  10. Have any of you ever worked at a freestanding ER? What were the pros and cons? I recently moved and there were none in my previous state, so I don't know a whole lot about them. So far, the only thing I've heard from nurses I work with is that the fr...
  11. What's it like at your ER

    Hi all, I trying to do my research mainly regarding staffing in TEXAS hospitals. I'm an ER nurse, but I'd still like to hear from you if ur in another specialty. Here goes a couple of questions: 1) what is the standard nurse: patient ratio in your ...
  12. Do you work away from the bedside???

    Do you work away from the bedside? What is your job title? How much and what type of experience did you need to get the position? I am currently an ER nurse with four years experience, but my current position is making me feel like it may be best to ...
  13. Pay for New RNs in Palm Beach, Broward, and Miami-Dade Counties?

    I've been trying to get the same info for experienced nurses. Generally, it seems like most ppl don't want to answer questions about pay. Good luck!
  14. How long do you stay at a job you hate?

    Thanks zmanc. As far as patient care, I feel like I can take care of my patients, but they aren't getting my absolute best. By that I mean, I'm still very careful with meds and thinking critically about the patients situation, but when it comes to th...
  15. How long do you stay at a job you hate?

    So I moved to a new city because my husband got a better job there. I'm indifferent about the city but I absolutely hate my new job. The ppl seem nice but the way the department flows gets to me. I'm trying to figure out if my old job just spoiled me...
