Sure I did home health 11 years. Ask about service area and on call. Ask if they pay hourly, salary or per visit. Ask about productivity standards. Ask about benies of course. LOL. Ask if you are compensated for office and travel time. I spent half my time in my car-about 15 hour minimum per week for a seven county service area for which I was not compensated for which made my hourly wage between 6 to 10 per hour. No lie. that is why I left. Loved the job but the pay stunk.

Thanks Sue,
I am told this is a non-profit agency, so the pay is probably not as good as for- profit places. I don't know what the averga is for home health nurses, do you? It is paid per hour and milage and has excellent benefits. (2 wks vacation after 6 months, etc.) I will know more on Tuesday!
Please pray that they pick me!!!!!!!!!!

Well, the time has come to possibly do the nursing I have wanted to do! I know the pitfalls of paperwork etc., have had friends who have worked in HH and told me about it, and I just have to finally do it. I am the kind of person who loves one to one care and teaching, and I am excited about my interview. I have done home health nursing as an aide but not an RN.
Can anyone share tips for the interview? (I actually think my new supervisor and interviewer might be a girl from my high school graduating class, 20 years ago!) But I am not sure.
I really want this position and want to make a good first impression!
Thanks and nice to meet you all! (I am new to the bulletin board).
