Kindhearted

Thanks carolinapooh for that info. I've also been thinking about joining the military going into healthcare administration. Wasn't sure about what to expect with training and deployment though.

WOW I took the test as well and I thought they were badly written questions and the content covered in the resource book did not assist with the information that they were trying to illicit on the test.

:angryfireI took the Hesi again and I failed. I don't know what I am doing wrong. I thought the test was easy but I not. I've studied and studied! What am iI doing wrong? Does any one have tips on how to pass this exam.

Are there any accredited program out there that combine getting a MSN and JD?

I have started a new nurse staffing ( per diem) agency. I'm hesitant about where to start on recruitment. Should I start recruiting people first or get the contracts (hospital) first?

I planned on just starting with myself but I wasn't sure if I could do that and work on my regular job also-thanks for the advice. I do have some connections in a couple of hospitals but I haven't brought my idea to them as of yet. I do have financi...

Hello again, I've been away for a while. Thanks for all of your input. Eye openers I might add. Just to clarify-I am starting a local (hospital) staffing agency, no home healthcare, no travel nursing. I was looking into PRN funding company but I wasn...

Thanks, I am interested because I took a course in political and ethical issues in nursing-I believe law is very vital to nursing because this governs everything about the profession from education (implementing programs) to the workplace (patient:nu...

I am in Texas. I've worked for a home healthcare agency before but that's been years ago. So you suggest that I work myself for the company first? I don't plan to actually be up and running until next year. I'm in the planning stage. How long does i...
