   How are things going for the ones that started working with Humana? They are currently hiring for Concurrent review/discharge planning position. Is this like a Mon-Fri 9-5 position? Is it salaried or hourly? Also I only have 2 years critical care exp...

   Was this the first time the patient had received Demerol?

4. Bullying at work, far commute... what to do??

   Dianas1086 replied to NS81's topic in Relations

   I agree with trying to find something closer which will enable you to save money on commute and might make up for the pay cut. Also no amount of $$$ is worth happiness and time with your daughter. Maybe ask your bf to try to find more work so you won...

6. Mom's Working 12's?

   Dianas1086 replied to erika.RN's topic in Med-Surg

   I'm a single mom and 12 hr shifts only work for me when they're nights. On days, by the time I left for work my daughter was sleeping and by the time I got home 8:30-9:00ish at night, my daughter had gone to bed.

7. IV insertion problems

   Dianas1086 replied to nursing_problem's topic in Emergency

   Don't take it personal. Put yourself in their shoes. Who likes to be stuck repeatedly? If my daughter needed an IV, I would probably be that parent that puts pressure on the nurse (although I would do it nicely). My point is more than likely the pati...

8. Transition from medical floor to ICU

   Dianas1086 replied to lisajtrn's topic in MICU

   You're going through a lot of changes at the same time, which is tough. New building, new coworkers, new floor! I agree with the one year time frame before you start feeling comfortable. If you made it through 13 years as a medical nurse, I have no d...

9. Florida Hospital Emergency Dept Nurse Internship Program

   Dianas1086 replied to sds1arm2's topic in Florida

   That is crazy! You showed initiative by getting those certifications and you have prior experience, regardless how long ago it was. I think that a new grad would cost them less. I've heard that Osceola Regional is always hiring, specially in their ED...

10. Florida Hospital Emergency Dept Nurse Internship Program

    Dianas1086 replied to sds1arm2's topic in Florida

    How did it go? If you don't mind me asking, what type of experience do you have. ED is a specialty I'm interested in and I actually applied for the EDNIP at FL hospital but they never called me, perhaps because I only have 1 year med/surg experience.

11. Health Central or FL Hospital...anyone?

    Dianas1086 posted a topic in Florida

    Some advice much needed if anyone can help! Ok so I have one year med/tele experience. I'm unhappy where I'm at currently. I'm Looking for a shorter commute (currently I'm driving 45 minutes one way) and also would like to work in a bigger hospital ...

    Hello Everyone! I'm new here. So I'm very interested in the LPN program. At first I was considering Orlando Tech however the next program starts September 10 and it's 15 months long (full time day program). The only other school that offers this prog...
