  1. Corporate housing

    Thanks so much. I just happened to run across one corporate apartment that is turn-key, great location, all-inclusive, etc. If that doesn't pan out I'll just turn it over to the agency. Contract is not signed yet so I won't be doing anything til agre...
  2. Corporate housing

    Hi there. I am new to travel nursing & am considering booking corporate housing myself for lodging. Has anyone ever used a company that specialties in locating corporate housing? Is it just an unnecessary extra expense? If it is worthwhile, any...
  3. Regarding nursing students- was this too much to ask?

    For myself, I would have been grateful to have been given a 'heads-up' & be able to come in a tad prepared. Just the fact that you are giving her this consideration says alot about the type of preceptor you are. That's awesome.

  8. What meds to keep

    I find it's a case by case decision. I seldom d/c things like BP or thyroid meds, inhalers, etc., especially if they are still doing well; but as a decline starts, I frequently try to get a sense of how the family feels about discontinuing anything ...
  9. hourly paid hospice job

    I prefer hourly, myself. I don't frequently work over 40, but it can get a bit crazy now & then... wouldn't want to be on a salary at those times. My daughter does pay per visit, and in this area that generally means no benefits; that alright i...
