What does it mean when a job ad says "Must have meditech." Is that computer charting? We still paper chart where I work, and I would like to travel in the future but almost all ads say must have meditech. Please clarify for me. Thanks

I am a new RN (graduated dec.14 woo-hoo) have been an LPN for 18 years. I am planning on moving to Meridian MS in the summer. I live within 65 miles of there now so this won't be a huge change. Have visited there a few times. My question is about the...

Does anyone work where the doctor's actually treat the nurses well? You know, friendly considerate etc. In my 18 years as a nurse I have worked in two different hospitals where the docs were actually pretty nice, and on the rare occasion they did act...

Is it true that Hawaii nurses wear flowers in their hair while at work? I think that is so cool.(and beautiful I bet) I hope to visit Hawaii one day,(maybe travel nurse, maybe just vacation) but I would love to see this in person. I can only imagine ...

Well Pardon me! I just thought it was a nice way to incorporate the local culture into the work place.(If it was true, obviously it isn't) Didn't mean to offend. If I remember correctly it was on all nurses that I read that bit of info.

Wow sounds too good to be true in LTC. But maybe it is what they say it is. I've worked in good LTC's and bad LTC's but and eventually got to the point that I said, No more LTC jobs for me. But if I could find one like that I might give them another ...

maybe "secondary to tobacco abuse x 40 years" (Sounds a little less judgemental)

en-clex is the norm.

Can a travel nurse have "refuse to float" written in their contract? Or do all travel nurses have to float? I was thinking what if your specialty is ob/gyn and they want you to float to oncology or something? Wouldn't that be dangerous?

I would love to hear from nurses that work in chemical dependency/addictions treatment centers. I am considering this field . I have been an LPN for 18 years and will graduate RN school in December. Love it? Stressful? Hate it? Any info appreciated.
