  2. anyone worked for Readylink?

    KLKRN replied to pamelanevada's topic in Travel

    I've done both contract and per diem with them for 2 years. For per diem they're good. There are other companies like RNNetwork and others that offer better benefits. What will really make or break...

  3. Travel Nursing In Alaska

    KLKRN replied to nananurse3's topic in General Nursing

    Alaska sounds beautiful. I have been traveling again recently and dreamed last night that I went to Alaska. I think that will definitely be on my list. My specialty is

  4. Well I feel like a doofus...

    KLKRN replied to wooh's topic in Legal

    Yes, that's definitely a plus, being able to get into a venue where you feel in control again. I have noticed that just what little I've been able to accomplish in prep for CLNC work has given me even...

  5. Well I feel like a doofus...

    KLKRN replied to wooh's topic in Legal

    Wooh! I haven't read the rest yet, but I want to tell you I had EXACTLY the same experience! Actually talked to the attorney and tripped all over myself! And he said the same thing, he'd keep my info...

  6. Nurse paralegal program

    KLKRN replied to stellsbells's topic in Legal

    My only comment is that once an attorney sees (and is used to paying) you as a paralegal, it seems to me that it might be difficult to change that mindset over to the lnc role. It is unlikely that...

    Now, Wooh, that is about the cutest emoticon message I've ever seen! Too

  8. Research

    KLKRN replied to bknyrn's topic in Legal

    This is why it's so great when someone asks these questions on this forum - so we can all gain the benefit of the

  9. Introduction Letter

    KLKRN replied to wooh's topic in Legal

    SirI, I could use some tips too, to see if I'm on the right track. I've been doing a lot of procrastinating too, lately. Or I've just had too much on my mind, like the rest of the

  10. History of facility

    KLKRN replied to Keysnurse2008's topic in Legal

    If they are part of public records, you might start with asking someone in the local or county court system, where the facility is located. You could also ask risk control or your facility's legal...

  11. My First Subpoena

    KLKRN replied to sfsn's topic in Emergency

    Where are the moderators? No one should be calling anyone an @ss on this forum. It shows not only a lack of professionalism, and respect for self and others, but anger management problems. To go to...

  12. Considering LNC career

    KLKRN replied to carolina1969's topic in Legal

    But it is something we can succeed in if we put in the effort. We do have good evidence of

  13. Considering LNC career

    KLKRN replied to carolina1969's topic in Legal

    I think it is important to understand that you should have an alternate source of income to stay afloat while you are gearing up your business. You don't walk out of the hospital one day as a nurse...

  14. Considering LNC career

    KLKRN replied to carolina1969's topic in Legal

    I don't know that I can add much to what RN1989 and SirI have said, but do consider that as RN1989 said, this is not just something you dabble in to make money. You have to put yourself into it 100%...

  15. Is it worth it?

    KLKRN replied to Bluehair's topic in Legal

    Yee Haw!!! Congratulations! As to whether or not it's worth it, I think that's up to each person to decide. I think if you put in the effort and pay attention to the ones who succeeded ahead of you,...

  16. Question about reviewing case and fees

    KLKRN replied to MemphisOBRNC's topic in Legal

    I have decided that I will take on a case, and if I find it's over my head (like cardiology or OB - reading strips, for instance) I'll get a subcontractor to do that part for me. But I agree with...

  17. $100-$150 per hour...too good to be true?

    KLKRN replied to user9876's topic in Legal

    I agree wholeheartedly with lecavalier4. The expertise of a paralegal is in the legal arena. The expertise of a legal nurse consultant is nursing. The paralegal can assist the attorney with the legal...

  18. Taxes and the LNC

    KLKRN posted a topic in Legal

    SirI, can you tell me what, as a general rule, independent LNC's would be wise to set aside for taxes. I have heard 30%. Does that sound reasonable for your

  19. Nurse fired for calling police

    KLKRN replied to Runman1914's topic in General Nursing

    Nope. Some of us were just using silence to make our

  20. "English Only" Rule at Work?

    KLKRN replied to Nurse!Nurse!Hello?'s topic in General Nursing

    I often work in a border town and there are always nurses and case managers sitting at the nurse's station talking incessantly, and loudly, in Spanish. More than once, I have had to ask them to tone...

  21. Nurse fired for calling police

    KLKRN replied to Runman1914's topic in General Nursing

    I would get the local news media involved in this story as well as an attorney. That management was entirely out of line. As for the message it sends to nurses: we don't care about you, you have no...

  22. LNC billing software

    KLKRN replied to forfitness's topic in Legal

    Microsoft also has a number of online tutorials on its products. I've found them very helpful. And they're

  23. Is it worth it?

    KLKRN replied to Bluehair's topic in Legal

    The nurse who enjoys this work will be the nurse who wants to know more about their patients than when their meds are due, more about their job than how soon they can punch out. As the others said,...

  24. $100-$150 per hour...too good to be true?

    KLKRN replied to user9876's topic in Legal

    An LNC who is a testifying expert can only testify within her area of expertise. So, testifying to the facts as to nursing practice standards and deviations would be appropriate. So when you say an...

  25. Faxed signatures of physician orders

    KLKRN replied to Mazzi's topic in Legal

    I know, old habits die hard. But this is really every bit as acceptable as the
