  1. Should I Carry Nursing Malpractice (Liability) Insurance?

    kanling replied to sirI's topic in Nursing Career

    Proliability policy documents

  2. Why are Nurses in MD not organized labor wise?

    kanling replied to Agrippa's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Maybe I'm stupid, but it seems to me that if I don't like my salary or work environment... then I quit and go somewhere else. Adding union employee salaries and the new salaries for the extra...

  3. Associate Degree or BSN?

    kanling replied to BSW2BSN's topic in Maryland Nursing

    GBMC hospital recently started only hiring nurses with BSN

  4. Should I Carry Nursing Malpractice (Liability) Insurance?

    kanling replied to sirI's topic in Nursing Career

    Here are the coverage details for the three companies when I was looking for insurance for Maryland recently. The link in Caffein's post above has explanations for some of the terminology. NSO/HPSO...

  5. Should I Carry Nursing Malpractice (Liability) Insurance?

    kanling replied to sirI's topic in Nursing Career

    Most nurses seem to use NSO without much thought. I couldn't stand to not know what the other options are, so I did some research. I found that there are really only three widely-available companies...

  6. Young new grad relocating to Baltimore

    kanling replied to all517's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Those downtown neighborhoods will be expensive. You can hunt online to find out how much. You might consider an apartment in Owings Mills or Pikesville for a year until you get familiar with the...

  7. Board of Nursing selling your data!

    kanling posted a topic in Maryland Nursing

    I have been wondering for years how I get junk mail from people who know that I'm a nurse. And how it kept following me even when I moved. The only thing that made sense was that the mailers were...

  8. Need advice please-moving to Maryland

    kanling replied to geclipse81's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Sounds like a few trips might be in order to get familiar with the area. Where will your fiancee be

  9. DE resident working in MD and taxes

    kanling replied to MelodyRNurse's topic in Maryland Nursing

    First the bad news: Maryland and Delaware don't have any kind of agreement on taxes. If you are a resident of Delaware and work in Maryland, you will have to do a tax return for both states. You will...

  10. MD hospital near PA & DE borders?

    kanling replied to Bunker's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Sweet indeed. I'm surprised O'Malley hasn't started ending the tax reciprocity agreement with those states. But you have a slight mistake. Delaware is not on the list. Virginia is. And Delaware is...

  11. Are hospitals outside of Wilmington competitive?

    kanling posted a topic in General Nursing

    I now have about two years experience at a good Baltimore area hospital (GBMC). I'm thinking about moving to Delaware, but I want to continue at a larger sophisticated hospital for a few more years...

  12. Are hospitals outside of Wilmington competitive?

    kanling replied to kanling's topic in General Nursing

    That's what I expected, unfortunately. I don't know anything about PRMC. I guess I'll look into it. I assume it is also small and maybe not quite the place to gain experience. Vania, no I didn't go...

  13. Advice: Want to buy a condo!

    kanling replied to LadyQT's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I work near Hunt Valley and a coworker once told me that High View was a ripoff. Something about low-quality construction and unhappy residents. I don't recall the details. You always have to be...

  14. baltimore..what's it like

    kanling replied to kingedward's topic in Maryland Nursing

    What makes you pick Mercy in Baltimore? Are you somehow limited to this area or could you go anywhere? I realize you are in Australia. I don't know where you live there, but my guess would be that...

  15. Baltimore safety

    kanling replied to 2008el's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Baltimore gets crazier. Last week there was yet another beating on a bus and I just heard on the radio that there was a stabbing on a bus a day or two ago. So I guess the rule is to stay off the bus...

  16. VJC and Towson BSN grads/current students

    kanling replied to hondurena's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Here's the info directly from the MBON http://www.mbon.org/main.php?v=norm&p=0&c=education/nclex_rn_stats_fy07.html The chart says it is the BSN program. I don't know what happens if they...

  17. VJC and Towson BSN grads/current students

    kanling replied to hondurena's topic in Maryland Nursing

    The original post on this topic is quite old, but for the interest of others, the fall 2007 MD Board of Nursing newsletter notes that Villa Julie BSN degree nursing only has a 77.5% NCLEX passing...

  18. Need Encouragment Please

    kanling replied to NrsheartTS's topic in Virginia Nursing

    What were you doing before last week? Honestly, if it is really that bad you should probably leave. The question is whether you should go quickly and leave it off your resume in the future or...

  19. Baltimore safety

    kanling replied to 2008el's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Owings Mills is an excellent choice because in the "New Town" section, there are a lot of relatively new apartment complexes. Nearby Pikesville has some good choices, but those apartments are older....

  20. Baltimore safety

    kanling replied to 2008el's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I agree with the others. You should live outside of the city until you become familiar with the area. Sad to say, but there are only a few safe areas in the city, but even there the violence...
