LTC/Rehab anyone?

[nocngail]

I'm thinking of spending less time shoveling snow this winter, and more time enjoying life (there's a no-brainer huh). N.C. is luring me-maybe to northwestern part?

Reality insists I will still need to work to balance all that enjoying time (sighs). I've found tons of N.C. info, but am hoping for some good 'ol, down-to-earth, hands-on, been there done that kinda input.

I'll take the good, the bad and the ugly...anything you LTC/Rehab nurses care to share will be appreciated!

Thanks!!

I worked in a Fayetteville Rehab center for about 6 months. I enjoyed it immensely. There are always the usual bugs involved with working with different personalities, etc. But for the most part, it was an awesome place to work. 8 hr shifts with optional 12 hrs. All kinds of work schedule, to fit your particular situation. Of course, they mostly needed day shift staff. But I know they try to work with you to fit your needs as well as theirs. Starting roughly $17.50 for New Grads, to whatever they think you are worth.

I was very sad when I had to resign. So was my PCM. :)
