1. Withholding Pay

   lpn954 replied to Tigerlily8's topic in Home Health

   Wow that sucks! Yes for not turning in your notes they can withhold pay. This is because they dont get paid. Im pretty sure its illigal to withhold pay for not doing notes the way they want. I would do that so so you get that check, and then run! ...

   thanks for the reply. Glad it sounds good. I am an LPN so most of my visits take that long. Mainly insulin injections, vitals check, or wound care but nothing too complicated.

5. Help! PPV versus Houly HH visits

   lpn954 posted a topic in Home Health

   I am an LPN and have done PPV for 5 years. No millage, or benefits at all but liked the flexibility of it and getting PPV. It was nice to get paid $15 that took me 10 minutes or so to do. Now I have lost patients and need work. I just had an int...

8. Gave my patients away

   lpn954 posted a topic in LPN/LVN

   I was working home health and my agency gave my patients away because I was falsely accused of making a med error. I was not fired, and they say they will consider me for future patients. Being left with no patients is not fair IMO, but it is what...

    lpn954 replied to ependytes's topic in LPN/LVN

    That Sucks! Sorry to hear that. Something that minor should not have been reported to them. What does 3 years probation mean? Sorry if this was answered already I didn't sleep well last night.

    lpn954 replied to moretonel's topic in LPN/LVN

13. Anyone Just Interested in Being an LPN, and not an RN

    lpn954 replied to UnbreakableOne's topic in LPN/LVN

    Right here! I love being an LPN, and could not picture doing anything else. You can make as much or more as an RN too if you get enough home health patients, work a specialty JOB like wound care, Trach care, vents.
