OK, thank you. I will probably call the Board of Nursing to find out more information.

I am looking to rent office space to do VA disability exams as a 1099 independent contractor. I was told I won't need a collaborative agreement with a physician for this work. Can anyone confirm whether this information is accurate? Thank you!

I was offered a position in an LTC/SNF facility. Their contract states I have to be on call when the facility needs me and that my pay will be based on RVU without mentioning how much I will be making per RVU. Is it normal for the employment agreement to be that broad? What is the usual pay for RVU in that setting? Thank you.

DowntheRiver, Thank you for your response. The fear that the cancer is going to return is always with me. To witness first hand what could be awaiting for me down the road could be too much. I've accepted a telemetry job. I stay in touch with a lot of people on oncology forums because, like you said, they are "my people". Thank you. Tanya

Wuzzie, thank you very much for finding time to reply to me. I think you are right. Cancer took so much from me. I am afraid I will end up wailing in the middle of the shift if something triggers it. Nobody needs it. Will try telemetry.

Hello fellow nurses, I am a recent cancer survivor. I am looking for jobs after not have worked for the last 3 years. My specialty is telemetry. I got this strong urge to try to get a job on an inpatient oncology unit. I guess it is difficult to leave that world once you have been there. Some people advised me that it would be too much to handle for me emotionally. What do you think? Has anybody been in the same situation? Should I mention my cancer experience and diagnosis with a manager if I get an interview? Thank you.
