1. Nursing Student Looking For Hospital CNA/PCA/PCT Position And Struggling

   HoneyDinkley replied to SuchanSuch's topic in Technicians

   I thought about a unit secretary position, but they don't peform direct patient care, which is what most employers are looking for once we obtain our LPN and/or RN license. Every single place I've applied to wanted CNA's with experience. If you are...

   But what was your hourly pay when you had no experience?

3. New graduate job offer in a surgical floor.

   HoneyDinkley replied to sr1984's topic in Florida

   I'm a PCT on a med-surg floor and I am absolutely miserable. I wish I had known ahead of time they have a high turnover rate, and average 15-18 patients a night, where over half of that number are "total" patients (the ones that are incontinent and ...

7. CNA hourly pay rate?

   HoneyDinkley replied to SuBinCRNAtoBe's topic in CNA/MA

   But what city is it in, and how many months/years of experience did you have at that pay rate? And what type of facility is it?

8. pct/nurse tech wages

   HoneyDinkley replied to k_r_ah's topic in Technicians

   Would this be LPN or RN school? UCH offers $9.22 for completing 2 semesters of LPN school. This doesn't sound decent compared to what I've read on other websites. Does TGH still hire nurse techs? If any nurse techs are reading this, what was your sta...

10. rude classmates

    HoneyDinkley replied to beckyb2201's topic in LPN/LVN Students

    I've been skimming these threads to see if any other students out there have dealing with the same problems I'm dealing with and even though these posts were from 3 years ago I just had to comment at how amazing it is that so many other people are de...

12. CNA hourly pay rate?

    HoneyDinkley replied to SuBinCRNAtoBe's topic in CNA/MA

    I haven't worked as a home health aide yet because I can't afford to live on that type of salary. But it's something I wouldn't mind doing. I don't think it would be weird going in their home. In my opinion it would be better than being in a h...

    HoneyDinkley posted a topic in Career Support

    To all the RN's out there...is it possible to be single and own a good home with an acre or two of land separating you from your neighbors? I'm an LPN student working towards becoming an RN, and live in an apartment complex. It used to be ok but the...

14. No jobs in florida for new grads

    HoneyDinkley replied to pmeeksSN's topic in Florida

    Was this an RN job? I find it very surprising if you got hired as an RN in Florida without even taking the NCLEX. Also what city was this in? And to answer your question I have made several phone calls to several facilities, and I've also had my res...

15. CNA hourly pay rate?

    HoneyDinkley replied to SuBinCRNAtoBe's topic in CNA/MA

    I became Florida certified this past March and have found that nearly all home health agencies I've contacted are looking for CNA's whether they are new grads or not. Do a google search on home health care in your area.
