Hi Well Monday was a call that an emergency had come up on Friday. So we agreed to try again this Thursday. I will cross fingers and toes and let everyone know

Hello The company rep. never called me at home as planned. This was a pre-employement interview, no set job. I triple checked and their confirmation email listed time date etc. Not a good sign.........

Thanks to everyone this is a spooky and exciting time for me as a nurse. I teach computer use here at work so I am comfortable with the PC's. Are any of the jobs part time? Or are they all full time.

Hello ladies and gents. I have a phone interview with Intellicare this Friday. Any tips for good questions you would ask??? I have 23 years of nursing a mix of hospital, home health with quality improvement and teaching. Relocating to another state and hope this will be a job I could do at home either until we settle or just like it and keep it. I am used to a quick pace and home health care nurses are giving phone support daily. I thank anyone with tips/comments. Many thanks

Thanks for the feedback, we are flying back out in April to make sure we are not nuts. Plan on renting short term before we buy a house.

Okay My husband and I want to relocate. Has anyone worked as a nurse in the Sedona area? I have been a nurse in home health care for the past ten years. Before that I worked for 7 years in the hospital, I would rather starve than go back to hospital nursing after so many years out. Has anyone done such a crazy thing?? We are flying out to look at houses, but we both need to work. Help is greatlyappriciated.

Hi In Mass. home care nurses do pronoucements only for "expected death in the home" patients. They have to have current DNRs and documentation of patient/family and MD agreement that terminal care needs will be addressed by the VNA. This is usually for our patients who refuse hospice and/or use our pallitative care program. We made sure we had the state law, our state nurse practice act and a current policy. We also have Comfort Care which the MD can order from their office, the band stays on and it is respected by EMT's as a patient based DNR. Nice program for families and patients who wish to be left alone. My grandad took a Sharpie marker and wrote DNR on his chest during his last hospital stay, he wanted to make sure "no fool doctor thumped my chest".
