I am also interested in any answers to this question. I am currently enrolled in the BSN-MSN flexpath at capella, but just realized that I cannot obtain the degree at Capella that I need to pursue my...
There were no incentives for staff to work extra. No Union. No agency staff. Honestly, I have ZERO LTC experience, it’s always been either inpatient or outpatient nursing, so that certainly could be...
I don’t know about the MOD, but who knows maybe that would come up on week 2!
there is a separate MDS nurse, but staff development was my responsibility as well.
The HR woman asked me if I...
I know this post is a little old, but I plan on starting in March (waiting on transcripts!) and I would love to get it done as quick as possible. It's great to hear that this is possible & that I...
