Thanks.

Of course each facility is different. I wanted to see how OTHERS do it and how it varies.

I was wondering how OTHER facilities do it. Of course it varies by facility.

Its been a while since I have done cysto. How many do you do in a day? How many nurses in the room? Mostly done under local? If not, do you have an anesthetist? RNs wouldn't do any sedation as...

$175 a year in Ontario.

I work days now PT. I am looking to pick up a casual job on the side. I interviewed and was pretty much offered a casual job. It's 11pm-7am. I could work as few or as many shifts as I want,...

I don't know. My guess would be no. My guess is that it would be very hard to even get hired as a new grad.

Have you read other posts here? I am not from Alberta but they are laying off now. There are no jobs especially for new grads. Also,it's possible they are including their vac pay and pay in lieu...

Who is the poster calling for all RN staff?

that is true about the vacations

No way. Not 5 in a row. I did 8 hr nights buying PT and never more than three in a row. Nope

Yes I mean per diem. Many people at my work do casual at 2 different places. They can totally choose their schedules/ vacation time.

I am curious: Do you work 1 place or more? Are you casual by choice? Why do you like being casual?
