  1. Work at home job leads for you

    G'smommy posted a topic in Case Management

    I posted this in Telephone Triage, but I think it is probably just as relevant here. I worked telephone triage for several years, but now I am a stay at home mom. I just started a website with work...

  2. On call with no experience. Help!

    G'smommy posted a topic in Infusion, Intravenous

    Okay, I have ICU, Remicade clinic, and pediatric telephone triage experience. I recently was hired by a home infusion company. I've watched another nurse on two three visits and now I will be on call...

  3. On call with no experience. Help!

    G'smommy replied to G'smommy's topic in Infusion, Intravenous

    Thanks so much. I will be asking for these things today. I'm studying my butt off to be competent and putting together all the resources I can find to have

  4. On call with no experience. Help!

    G'smommy replied to G'smommy's topic in Infusion, Intravenous

    Thanks IVRUS! I have a feeling I've signed up with a not so good company. I'm betting they don't have P&P. I've asked so many questions and haven't really gotten answers. Thanks for taking the...

  5. On call with no experience. Help!

    G'smommy replied to G'smommy's topic in Infusion, Intravenous

    I'm making a list of things I need before I'm on call next week. I am requesting a list of staff phone numbers as well as manuals for every pump we use. I'm not clueless about taking care of the...

  6. lactation consultant

    G'smommy posted a topic in Ob/Gyn

    If I get transfered to the PP dept. I would like to become a lactation consultant. I read on the IBCLC website that I need 600 hours of breastfeeding consultation. What counts as bc? Working with my...

  8. Why Did You Choose Telehealth Nursing?

    G'smommy replied to Destiny12's topic in Telephone Triage

    I had no motivation other than to be at home with my kids. I don't feel like I need a bleach shower after work now, so that is one perk. I get to work in my pjs. Downside, parents can be rude and not...

    G'smommy replied to purple*11's topic in Georgia Nursing

  13. Question about working from home

    G'smommy replied to Humbled_Nurse's topic in Telephone Triage

    I am able to get up and walk around. My calls come via fax and I return them. I can hear my fax machine ring when I have a call. I do laundry, watch movies, etc between calls. That being said, my...

  14. which patients are in/out of your comfort zone?

    G'smommy replied to PureLifeRN's topic in General Nursing

    The only patients that ever unnerved me were the ones with "important" family who hovered over the bed and reported everything I did to management, the doctor, God, whoever would listen. The ones that...

  15. Stepford Wife Triage Nursing

    G'smommy replied to Jerry 75's topic in Telephone Triage

    I think that is nuts. So if the patient went in and was dx with strep and on abx for only a day, if you don't know that, you just send them right back in? I am so glad our protocol isn't like that....

  16. How do you deal with a crying child?

    G'smommy replied to bambam1288's topic in General Nursing

    Not all kids are the same. No matter what the

  17. How do you deal with a crying child?

    G'smommy replied to bambam1288's topic in General Nursing

    Thank you to the peds nurses who try to give children a chance to be calm. Their is nothing worse than taking my son (who loves going to the doctor's office) to a medical office or the hospital and...

  18. Do you miss the hands-on care?

    G'smommy replied to LovingNurse's topic in Telephone Triage

    That is nuts. I triage a lot more calls per hour than many of the nurses on this forum and I would go crazy doing 100/day more than a few days a year (Labor day was like that for me/ 115/8 hours). You...

  19. Do you miss the hands-on care?

    G'smommy replied to LovingNurse's topic in Telephone Triage

    I miss IVs. Sometimes I wish I could bring some home and stick my husband for kicks.

  20. Do you miss the hands-on care?

    G'smommy replied to LovingNurse's topic in Telephone Triage

    Well for me, it is all about my family. I'd shovel crap as long as I could be here with my kids while I did it. So for me, I'd rather do hands on care if it meant seeing them more. Plus, people are...

  21. Pediatric telephone triage - Help!

    G'smommy replied to CTRN2679's topic in Telephone Triage

    If you keep BS protocol by the phone and use it exactly, you will never go

  24. RN Nurse VS Pharmacist

    G'smommy replied to thongvo89's topic in General Nursing

    I gave up pharmacy school to be a nurse. The pay can be as good in some RN jobs, is great anyway even when it is less than PharmD, school isn't as long, overall debt when leaving school isn't as high,...

  25. First level telephone triage nursing

    G'smommy replied to Bella RN's topic in Telephone Triage

    I don't think there are different levels of triage, so much as types of triage. The job you are describing sounds like a non-licensed person could do it. Is it an RN only
