  1. Thank you for this. I am moving forward with the position after (finally) speaking to the Nurse Recruiter and the Administrator again to get some clarification. The reason they are hiring specifically...
  2. This company is nation wide so I know it's a stable company. They have multiple offices in each state so this particular office only covers one county which also concerned me as the county isn't that...
  3. Yes, that is what my gut is telling me as well. I am the only income for my household so not having one that isn't consistent isn't doable. Thank you for
  4. Is home health that bad?

  5. Forced to Return to the Floor

    Nurses can lose their license for many reasons, including working in patient care they are not experienced for/properly oriented to. A nurse refusing to provide care in an area she/he isn't experience...
  6. How much do you make pay per visit?

    Kodizzay...what happens if you don't have visits or only a couple of visits for the day..does being paid by points mean if there are no visits or one is canceled then you are not paid? Also, if you...
  7. Point system for FT

    I know this is an old post but was wondering if you still work this position? I have been offered a Baylor HH position but am concerned about it being pay based on points and have a few
  8. Hospital nursing to Home health?

    You will likely use a lot the same skills in the home but you are also on your own so you have to be good at time management, skills and documentation. Like everywhere, there is a lot of documentation...
  9. In between jobs and feeling LOW

    A lot of places are slower to hire now the Covid uncertainty remains - which I suspect it will for a few more months at least. That being said, I don't think you have ruined your career..if the job...
  10. Nursing Is No Longer Worth It

    If I were starting out again, and the profession was like it is today, I would look into other options besides nursing. I don't view (and never have viewed) being a nurse as my "calling." But what...
  11. VA Case Management

    The uniform allowance I know is given to nurses that work the floor and also the "CBOCs" but I don't know about CM but ask. The orientation is 2 weeks of general, the 3rd week is nursing orientation...
  12. VA Case Management

    Your Quanterion test is good for a year unless there would be am exposure of some kind where you would need to be retested. Same w/all your lab work and drug test. You won't be retested if you accept...
  13. VA Case Management

    It is not like the civilian sector at all. The process you are going through (physical, etc) including the telephone interview, is how it's done. The salary will be the last thing you will get...
  14. VA Case Management

    I have worked for the VA a few times in the past on short term assignments. Case Management included. Salary with the VA is based on education, certifications and experience. Prior military...

  16. Consider Area Change to Hospice

    I actually do understand about quitting jobs frequently..and you are right..many people don't understand. Even on sites like this one many will "bash" those that don't stay in a job for a year (even...
  17. Recently went on a job interview for a position I would really like. I had previously interviewed (& declined due to extremely low salary) a different position with this company 2-3 years ago.....
  18. Update: I was notified I am still under consideration for the position, however, the selection process, reference checks, etc. are on hold indefinitely due to Covid-19. I appreciate everyone's...
  19. I've done the follow up "thank you" to those who interviewed me a day after the interview. Waited over a week and sent a follow up "touching base" to HR contact. No response but I wasn't expecting...
  20. Thank you brownbook.. I am trying to figure out how to correct my posting to display in paragraphs. I did not realize it was one long post until you pointed it out. I genuinely appreciate your...
