  1. personal gripe about new doctor

    Thank you. The reason why my daughter tested positive on the mono blot test may be due to the fact she had mono when she was 9 years old. From the articles I have read, once a person has mono, they may test positive on the blot test for life. The...
  2. personal gripe about new doctor

    my daughter has been very ill recently. Because of the failure of her previous doctor to diagnose, I was given the choice of a NEW doctor. Very new. She just recently received her license as an MD. (June) Please understand that I had no choice in wh...
  3. interview with addictions facility CEO

    I think your idea is good. I have been so upset since this interview. I don't understand what kind of person they want working for them, but I am a nurse and I do think all people deserve compassion especially those going through a very rough time. I...
  4. interview with addictions facility CEO

    you are exactly right. The CEO has been there way too long and her ideas are outdated. She has a Masters in Social Work, not nursing and she judged me on the idea that I am nice? What does she want working there? People who are bullies and don't care...
  5. Nurses really aren't the smartest people

    my cousin couldn't pass the entrance test to become a nurse, so her mother, my aunt, is always telling my mother that my cousin never really wanted to be a nurse anyway! Guess my cousin didn't tell my aunt the truth that she couldn't pass the entran...
  6. What is the least amount you would work for as a RN?

    when I started out as a RN back in 1996, $12 was the beginning rate. Most of the nursing assistants that I have trained in the past are starting out between $9.00 to $10.00 an hour and given 6 weeks of training.
  7. What is the least amount you would work for as a RN?

    yes I was wondering the same thing. I bet she doesn't work for $12 an hour. She tried to justify the wages by saying they are state funded. I know for a fact that she isn't getting that low of a salary. How she can even offer a nurse with my experien...
  8. What is the least amount you would work for as a RN?

    the administrator told me that since the nurse stepped down from the nursing position, he is NOT to act as a nurse in any capacity, so I wouldn't have him as help.
  9. interview with addictions facility CEO

    I had an interview yesterday with our local addictions facility CEO and charge nurse. This is an inpatient facility, but also treats clients on an outpatient basis too. My interview was a nightmare. First off, I had to take a 2 page test concerning a...
  10. What is the least amount you would work for as a RN?

    no, no typo. She stated it 2 times. $12.00 an hour. The program assistants who are like certified nursing assistants get paid $8.25 and they pass food trays, play games with the clients, toilet, shower, etc. The nurse is expected to help with the foo...
  11. What is the least amount you would work for as a RN?

    I have checked the minimum salary for RN's in this area and it's about $21.00 an hour. That is also the starting wages in LTC which around here usually are the lowest paying employers. No, it's not worth it especially when I have to drive 30 miles t...
  12. What is the least amount you would work for as a RN?

    yes I do consider it a slap in the face. The administrator wants me so badly, yet she says they can only pay $12.00 an hour. Minimum wage is $8.25 and that is what my daughter is making as a waitress in a fast food restaurant, plus she can get tips ...
  13. What is the least amount you would work for as a RN?

    thank you all for your replies. This is a part time no benefits job. I will have to pass medications, give insulin, take out the all trash, supervise program assistants and work every Tuesday and Saturday. I live in a very rural area, but this job w...
  14. I was offered a position in an adult day care and what is the wage? $12.00 an hour. I find this insulting. Any one else find this insulting or am I being silly? Thanks :)
