Gas prices on the rise

Published

With gas prices on the rise, how long before the extinction of home health? How long can we continue to work and travel extensively on less than adequate mileage reimbursement? By the way, who pays for the burned up gas when sitting in traffic for long periods of time?

I just had interview with Life Care At Home HH, prn, they offered 42 cents/mile, SOC$60, Other Oasis $50, routine $40 and Hitech $50, office time for case conf etc at $30/hr....I am in SE TN, pay is not very good but does this sound reasonable.. I have been off a yr and have no one to ask.

That is way better than south louisiana. During your tour of duty as a homehealth nurse, if you have to replace any of your car's tires, ask about road hazard insurance - it's great - tires replaced for the cost of labor and believe me you will be replacing tires.
