It sounds like this is your first assignment; is that right? How bad is bad? Hmmmm.... well, if it is unsafe and untolerable, only you can answer that. There may be fees to reimburse the Travel Company. Without your providing that information here, I...

I was thinking it was for Louisianna. lol

Thanks (((((((((((((((siri))))))))))))))) I really appreciate all your help

Thirty six to 40 dollars is about average for per diem in Colorado. There is no OT untill after twelve hours in a day or forty in a week. There are no benefits.

Siri: To be reved up to go, what do you suggest? I am looking into stationery and business cards for mail out. How many and how ready should I be? Should all this be ready for when I get home from the Conference? What do the LNC's wear? I have rather...

And they do, both sides know what their minimum agreement would be.

According to Websters, online version(a portion has been quoted): a worker who refuses to join a labor union (2) : a union member who refuses to strike or returns to work before a strike has ended (3) : a worker who accepts employment or replaces a u...

Uh, Tim... this is not personal....

It is my understanding these bills for Replacement Nurses are covered under insurance coverage.

I moved your Thread to the NCLEX Forum. Good luck to you and let us know how you make out.

Thanks for the update Agnus. How did you get the updated books? I have used, I think it was, buy dot com for texts. Were you able to get the SPN # through their assigned texts?

Referring to Colorado Springs area: Yes, they do. I do not know which ones do. I do know NurseFinders and Critical Nurse Staffing has contracts in the area. Try a search on google for their website and telephone numbers (I prefer those to not be post...

Try a google search for Hospital Support. $ 17.00 an hour is way too low. I have heard Hawaii is low because of of COLA (cost of living allowance) but it is more like $27.00. Good luck to you and let us know how you make out.

I am sorry this is going on for you. If it is something you cannot live with for 12 more weeks, while I have had similar interactions like this (they are rare), no one can walk your walk but you. I have never left or called off sick for any days on c...

I am sure you will get lots of advice. Make sure you take the time to get to know the area and make it a memorable experience. Pack your smile

staff reminder to posters: please be careful about posting very private and very specific information on this international website. facilities, co-workers, apartment owners, lurkers, and worse can view this site too. so, please, keep information t...

Bad... really bad... some facilities will cancel you for that reason alone. Some do not care. I always tell an Agency, in writing, they do not have permission to submit me without my written permission. Also, the contract is not valid until I have re...

For ideas on Home Care Management, which is what you sound like you are after, check in with the CNA Forum, here on AllNurses (see links in my signature line for that Link to the CNA Forum). Good luck to you.

The age long question is: Is it possible to be a Nurse and an Entrepreneur? Yes, it is possible with a lot of effort. Always, start with a Business Plan. Please see the Sticky, here on AllNurses, regarding that. Here is that link: Business Planning ...

I have not had this happen but have heard of it. Why anyone would need a contract like "that" is beyond me in this day of Nurses being the marketable product that is sought after. I am sorry this has happened to you. I would recommend you seek an at...

Thanks Erin, fine synopsis.

Again, speak to some of the Hospitals in your area. I am a volunteer at one. I signed up, told them what I had in mind, they had me do "whatever" (mostly housekeeping). I called the volunteer office, after a brief stint on the floor helping out with ...

I am sorry that happened to you. Things do happen for a reason and I bet something better is going to come of this.

Exactly.

Did it work?
