I just started a PRN position at a LTC facility, and my 2nd night on the job, I had an STNA who really started off on the wrong foot with me. First she left for her dinner break at 6:45pm and did not return until 7:50, with the exscuse that she went ...

hi, i'm a fairly new nurse in the cleveland area looking for some good leads as far as agencies that are worth looking into for prn work. health coverage isn't an issue.
I recently discovered that a friend of mine (or someone I concidered a friend) lied to me about being a registered nurse. She is actually a STNA on another unit. The thing that really bothers me is that she will call me in the evening and complain ab...

I have a friend that recently graduated from a LPN program in the Cleveland area, and she had a very hard time finding a job. A large number of the major hospitals in the Greater Cleveland area don't hire LPNs as floor nurses too much any more, so sh...
