  1. Ballpark RN Pay in GA???

    Average hourly rate for RN's in Ga is $30/hr. Some places higher, some lower depending on specialty, experience, degree etc..as far as housing goes, that is also highly dependent on where you live. Warner Robins is a military town, busy..as it ATL. T...
  2. Call 24/7/365, no back up - is this reasonable?

    She met with the hiring CEO again..promises were made but the basics were still the same. She declined the position.
  3. Call 24/7/365, no back up - is this reasonable?

    Not sure what you meant by suspicious of the place not getting more business..but I agree..she said the salary is "a little over 70/yr" but the benefits I don't know about - she didn't say. Didn't think about her getting paid regardless of salary..ju...
  4. Call 24/7/365, no back up - is this reasonable?

    That's what I think will happen in her case...that she will end up being burnt out and basically working everyday - especially since she is the only RN. Thank you for the reply.
  5. Call 24/7/365, no back up - is this reasonable?

    I'll pass this along..thanks
  6. on call requirement

    I posted a questions re: hospice call yesterday..someone I work w/has been offered a high salary FT M-F position w/a very small local hospice. They are telling her she will be the RN on call nights/weekends/holidays in addition to work the M-F regula...
  7. Should I run...

    There is an inpatient psych facility in my area and I know someone who works there..the staffing you describe is very much like there..she has techs and LPN's that work with her but she is the only RN. The MD or NP will make rounds once a week as wel...
  8. A coworker of mine was offered a hospice position for a small company that has not been in business much over a year. They told her the census is "less than 10" so at this point she would work M-F 8:00- 5:00 plus take call every night and weekend unt...
  9. Am curious to what you all think about working as a nurse (or any healthcare provider in general) with mental health issues and how shift work helps/hurts you in managing your mental health...have you found working 8 hour shifts or 12 hour shifts b...
  10. From OR nursing to GI Lab

    I work in an outpatient GI clinic (MD owned)..narcs are counted before the first procedure and after the last one. Fent & Versed are used, sometimes Demerol &/or Phenergan. It's conscious sedation done by an RN - no Nurse Anesthetist . Yes, b...
  11. Not happy with bedside

    kt1109 you can always stay PRN where you are or somewhere else & take the outpatient clinic position..having NICU on yoru resume, at least where I live, makes you highly desirable for employment so returning to a hospital setting wouldn't be that...
  12. 8hr Shifts vs 12hr Shifts

    I have worked both..I am soon to return to 12 hour shifts by choice. I have found that working a M-F or even M- Thur 8 hour days are really 9-10 hours & I am more tired, more stressed than I was working the 12hours. I also like having some flexib...
  13. I would apply to AT if I were you and go from there..you have already spoken to someone at AT who said you should be fine with reapplying..if admissions has questions I'm sure they will ask you..with any accredited college classes that are failed or ...
  14. Will I find a job?

    Given you never worked as a nurse - it sounds that way from the post above - you would be viewed as a new grad I'd think and like others have stated, one that didn't continue right out of school to find a position..refresher course would be helpful b...
  15. Anyone work only per diem with an agency?

    I'd think w/as specialized as your skill set is you would be able to maintain steady work PRN - you can always let it be known you are willing - if you are - to work other units. Another option would be to do local travel contract. I use to work PRN ...
