  2. Considering an on call position

    Just curious.....What did you decide to do?
  3. When you're done. Just done.

    Sadly, no good deed ever goes unpunished!
  4. Data Abstractor position?

    I hear what you have been saying and Q-Centrix has positioned itself to evolve with the changes that are coming down the pike. I'm not concerned one bit that my job will be phased out. I'm in quite a bit of a different situation than a lone quality c...
  5. Data Abstractor position?

    I can understand your fear because you work for ONE facility. In my position, I am an extension of the quality department for MANY hospitals that have found it more cost effective to outsource their data abstraction. That is why Q-Centrix is experien...
  6. Data Abstractor position?

    I work for Q-Centrix and trust me when I say this is not going away. We have a remarkably busy company that is only growing day by day!
  7. Data Abstractor position?

    While this may be somewhat true for Core Measure data abstraction, it is far from true for other types of data abstraction such as Get with the Guidelines and other registries. Hospitals are utilizing these more and more and the information is not pu...

  12. RN-BSN program

    I did Nova Southeastern's online RN-BSN and really liked the program a lot! Took me about a year to complete and they accepted my ADN as most of the prereqs so I only needed to take Sociology and that was all.
  13. First of all, I really liked working for Lee Memorial Health Systems. I worked for them over a couple years and the pay and the benefits were very good I thought. The nursing staff was very friendly to each other also. I've also done some PRN work f...
  14. Another feeling stupid thread... Need encouragement

    Don't get involved in the soap opera of gossipy co-workers. Stay clear of that drama...it will do you nothing but harm.
  15. Another feeling stupid thread... Need encouragement

    The quote above is very true. I've seen it time and time again with new nurses that I have trained in OB. The fact that you recognize what you don't know is a great first step. The dangerous nurses are the ones who think right out of the gate that th...
