   TSL7286 replied to TSL7286's topic in General Nursing

   I've seen people get bumped to part time, and lose their health insurance on FMLA. So I dont know. Maybe it depends on your states laws. NOTE I would never wish that upon anyone, and think it's really wrong. Just saying I've seen it.

3. Don't Want To Touch Patients!

   TSL7286 replied to ThinBabe's topic in General Nursing

   Get your hands dirty! Just always take your shoes off before going into your house and shower when u get home. Really not a big deal. If ur that much of a germiphobe, you probably won't enjoy nursing and being around sick patients, or patients with f...

10. Healthcare deductables

    TSL7286 replied to CriticalCareRN1's topic in Activism

    Dang, that's terrible. I would hate having a deductible that much. Is this a family plan or just for yourself? I could understand a 6000 dollar deductible for a family of 4 but not one individual. I would definitely see what you can get on your own. ...
