   The new Mary Kay Satin Hands combines 2 steps in a peachy fragrance. The extra emmolient night cream is great for nightly application. Don't even need the gloves if they're

2. jobs near louisville?

   cadillac05 replied to cariad's topic in General Nursing

   Louisville area hospitals use in-house registry and agency nurses. Not much chance for a travel contract. Pay is much lower than other areas, as well. The agency I work with pays $27 plus bonuses if...

3. claiming to be what she isn't

   cadillac05 replied to traumamomtx's topic in General Nursing

   Thanks for the clarification. Again, with such a huge number of designations for various healthcare providers, the general public just doesn't really care what your title is. I can see the problem you...

5. Pa None Smoking!

   cadillac05 replied to LisaG21's topic in General Nursing

   The unfortunate thing is that laws are not always the answer. By the way, the United States of America is a republic form of government. During the past few decades, those who want everyone else to...

6. Pa None Smoking!

   cadillac05 replied to LisaG21's topic in General Nursing

   What other factors play a part in the numerous medical diagnoses of those patients? Ask any environmentalist (gag) about all the polutants in our air. They like to 'crusade law' people to death, too....

7. Pa None Smoking!

   cadillac05 replied to LisaG21's topic in General Nursing

   Not a very thought-ful answer to the question

8. Pa None Smoking!

   cadillac05 replied to LisaG21's topic in General Nursing

   Given the fact that most 'baby-boomers' and lots of their children grew up in homes of smokers and were in a society where smoking took place freely, just how in the world have so many millions...

   Clark Hospital (Clarksville) and Floyd Memorial (New Albany) are advertising $5000 sign on bonuses for ICU nurses. They are on the Indiana side of the river and may be too far from Prospect to...

10. Traveling and Learning

    cadillac05 replied to Billy5949's topic in Travel

    Sounds like you're a bit frustrated with where you are. Is that the reason you want to 'travel'? If so, you'll probably find the same type of situation (to some degree) wherever you are. I am not...

11. Skirts in the OR

    cadillac05 replied to MoriahRoseRN's topic in Operating Room

    No one is arguing. That's why I noted that you were referring to your hospital's policy. And your first post mentioned the checking. Don't get yours in a bunch, please. :smackingf There are no...

12. Skirts in the OR

    cadillac05 replied to MoriahRoseRN's topic in Operating Room

    Nearly every OR I've worked in had one or more women who, for religious reasons, wore skirts. Scrub dresses are still available and were purchased for their use by the facility. Perineal fallout? and...

13. Laredo Medical Center ??

    cadillac05 replied to kwagner_51's topic in Texas Nursing

    I was there for a 6-week travel assignment a few years ago. Laredo is a border town, not very attractive. People are nice, but Spanish is the primary language, so be prepared to learn if you're...

14. considering OR traveling

    cadillac05 replied to mtnrunnerRN's topic in Operating Room

    Although I was offered assignments in many parts of the country, I was partial to the west. Was in my home state of Texas, N. Mex., Ariz., Wy., Wash., N. Dak., and Wisconson. I think that's all. Did 7...

15. considering OR traveling

    cadillac05 replied to mtnrunnerRN's topic in Operating Room

    I traveled for several years as a circulator with no problem. Took call, too. Every OR I've ever been in has ORTs which severely limits the use of RNs as scrubs. Unfortunate, because I always enjoyed...
