Thank you, this agency I don't care for anyway because I feel they favor the families more than their nurses yet they pay more. The other agency I work for I do like because I feel they have the nurses back versus the families yet the pay is lower. Yes the mom comes off as very sneaky and I don't care for it. That's why I declined immediately thanks for noticing Yes and these peds parents all think their child is "special" and want the world to evolve around them. That's why I have switched to teens to adults. The peds moms seem lonely and look for friends within the nurse all while being manipulative.

She's looking to sucker nurses into household duties, teaching her school lessons, doing her PT,OT,and speech with her aswell. You've must've been in homecare for a while because you've picked up on so much that I've noticed without me having to mention. They haven't had a nurse for 2 months so like you've mentioned something isn't right. I feel I dodged a bullet with this one. I've noticed that too her stories do not add up. That's another reason I backed out

AmoLucia picked up on it well. I don't think you're understanding the big picture. Mom didn't need to disclose any of that to me. That was a manipulative pushy tactic on her end to get me to say ," oh no don't ill stay here in work permanently". I'm not going to say that to a family I barely met that day and oriented with. Why? Because I do not know them or the child yet. So there was no need for the mom to approach me with any of that. If anything that should've been a talk she should have with the agency not me. As a result of her lack of professionalism I declined. Makes sense why they haven't had a nurse in 2 months. You've missed the bigger picture here which is something AmoLucia recognized. And if she didn't want temp she could've declined from the start. If she's like this with me now imagine if I would've took the case .

I'm confused on the "what's your problem?" Who are you referring to? There is no new nurse. what are you talking about?

Thank you, you get it. Yes she came across as wishy washy manipulative and pushy. She did seem like she was trying to save face by saying she really liked me to the agency yet when me and her talked she just gave weird vibes rather quickly. The agency kept saying no she loves you and she was crying saying she would never want to make a nurse feel as if she wasn't wanted. IDK this agencies set of families give me weird vibes as a whole. And I agree she was definitely trying ti come off as an angel to the agency yet that particular family hasn't had a nurse in 2 months. Says a lot about the home . So I was already weary if that . Bc usually left over cases are the ones no one wants

To the mom? Yeah I'm like completely confused by what she was saying. Would you have returned back to the home after mom said that to you? It was my first day there and per request parents like to orient the nurses on the first day. Her comment at the end of my shift threw me off and made me on comfortable.

How would you feel in this situation, advice needed: Family 1: You're a nurse for the child but the child is in the hospital. Your job gets you temporary placement pdn placement to help out with family 2. Family 2: It's day 1 orientation. While here temporarily I felt things went great. Then near the end of your shift the mom says, "I feel like your loyalty is to the other family so I don't feel like you're all in with my child. So, I will be looking through other agencies for another nurse. There will be a day where I tell the agency don't send you because I will be meeting other nurses who can work here permanently. And I don't know if you're going to stick to family 1 or be with us." So you tell your employer, "I won't return because you feel like the mom of family 2 wasn't pleased with your work." Yet mom of family 2 tells your employer they liked you after saying the above things to you. Would you still want to work with family 2? or would you feel like family 2 didn't like you?

Was it due to having to pay more for an RN?

All I have to say is if you have pets hide them. Because nothing good is going to come of this. This generation of people are crazy. The news talks to much to the point it gives dangerous people ideas. This is not good news at all. I feel crazy people are going to start invading farms and stealing people's pets so that they can sell their organs on the black market. People are overall evil so I really don't think a person deserve an innocent animals organs.

I feel the same way. I feel people are crazy these days and will start killing animals at random just to sell their organs on the black market. Hide your farm animals, hide your dogs ,hide your cats because this generation of people are wicked. I'm not happy with this either. I feel the news puts too much info out there to the point where dangerous people get ideas

That's how I took it too . My friend got into a residency program for OR. She is now an OR nurse at that same hospital. I see alot of interest in CRNA. What do CRNA do ? So are they not considered bedside? Congrats by the way. For me I like bedside because I'm no longer at a facility. I do pdn and home health. One patient at a time, I make my own schedule, the overall time to really do assessments and understand diagnosis is helpful.I did snf I enjoyed the skills aspect of it bit not the nurse to patient ratio. Very unsafe.

Yes you should definitely add the 6 months to your resume. All experience counts. 6 months is a good amount of time and most new grad nurses bounce around for 6 months to get experience and to see what specialty works for them. It's normal

Eh sounds like animal cruelty to me. Sad I feel like they're already slaughtering them for food now for their organs?

This was very informative thanks. So what's your take on the BSN? Do you think it's good to have or a waste of money?
