Thanks for your reply. I have called 2 hopsitals there asking what was expected of employees this was not mentioned. But who told me recently traveled there and said he heard it at the place he was working. I wouldnt mind service work just really curious to know if its true or not.

I wouldnt think they could "force" you either but its the word I keep hearing. If you want to stay employeed here you have to do service work. thanks for posting : )

Hi! :) I haven't been here in a long time but feel sure I can get my question answered. I currently live in Knoxville but seriously thinking of moving to Kingsport Tn I have heard rumors some hospitals in Kingsport require you to do volunteer work in addition to your regular work hours with no kind of compensation (compensation meaning gas money, meal money etc) Im not opposed to doing volunteer work. I already do some here but I just want to find out if its true or not.... I just dont feel it should be forced on people. What Ive hear is that one particular medical center will terminate you if you dont. If its true I just would like the basic info such as what kind of service work and how often? And anything else you can offer. Thanks !!

I ve heard accupunture works very well....but definitely be sure there is nothing serious going on before you do anything that might only prolong the inevitable.....or aggrevate an exsisting condition

Shame on that DR... She certianly violated hippa more...she knew she shouldn't be inquiring

Does anyone know of any CRNA schools in Israel..Does not matter what city just as long as they accept BSN nurses from the US Thanks in advance for any help.

Baptist pays well I hear but I hear bad things about them as well...they pay more so the staff puts up with more....I work with 2 nurses that just left Baptist

I suggest you get some experience then do Traveling.....its how I found my "spot"

I believe Tn still needs RN however this time of year with the budgets being reworked not many hospitals hire unless in an area with needs.. such as where I work. I work in PACU and we just hired 2 RNS. Now we have all our FTEs filled chances are when our case loads drop we will be losing time...the floor Rns are losing all kinds of time based on the number of patients in the hospital...might not be the case every where .
