   MichiganRN13 replied to akilah530's topic in Georgia

   This probably won't help you as I am in Michigan but just to get an idea of ranges around the country I started off at 26.50 with a small shift differential. This was at a small hospital, that seems to be around the basic starting wage here. There ar...

3. Would you consider a company car a HIPAA violation

   MichiganRN13 replied to HHN2472's topic in Home Health

   I agree with 84RN, the car sitting in the driveway in and of itself would not be a HIPAA violation. If that was the case wouldn't that be true of an ambulance parked there on a call to that home? As long as the person isn't telling the neighbors prot...

4. Training/Orientation

   MichiganRN13 replied to malenurse122879's topic in Home Health

   I have just had one interview with one company but I was told that I will have (if hired) 6-8 weeks of orientation. I can not say for sure that it will play out that way but this seems like a very respectable and well organized company and I believe...

   MichiganRN13 replied to Nursestd's topic in General Nursing

    MichiganRN13 replied to avanee01's topic in Michigan

    I am a recent graduate from Baker and I think that if your talking about 10-15 hours per week then you should be fine. There are times it can be extremely rigorous but as long as you don't put things off till the last minute it is very possible. I my...
