   Verbal Hand-off Reports - Are they no longer necessary?

   biopsychmajor replied to yr.pedsnurse's topic in General Nursing

   As long as the report is detailed, I don't feel like there is a need for verbal report. Like you stated, however, most of the time that is not the case. On top of which, in my experience, the nurse gets upset when you call them to ask questions that ...

   Just Monday and Tuesday. They didn't mention anything beyond that. I hope everything works out. I feel though that they probably have multiple starting times within the next couple months. As long as they start me with one or two patients, I think ...

   I hope so too. You are right about the extended stay places. They are expensive!! I'm just looking into a hotel or something until I actually get there and can start looking at places. I'll figure something out. Does anybody actually know any details...

   My drug test was a urine test but they can do it by blood too. When i got my test done, she said the results only take a couple of days to come back, so I would call in a couple of days to recheck. Official start date is the 21st. I haven't found a p...

    I finally got my official offer today. It was definitely a long process. I figured they weren't helping with relocation expenses since it is the government so I didn't count on that. I'm coming from PA so it's not that far so I may leave some things ...

    (MODERATOR EDIT OF NAME) is the nurse recruiter at the DC VA I've been in contact with. I'm not sure who set up the physical and fingerprinting though. You could try calling her to see what to do next. I do know they sent a letter to the Philadelphia...
