  1. Orientation length?

    HannahLeah replied to twokidsmom,rn's topic in Home Health

    Hi twokidsmom, Im in a similar situation and it IS stressful to not know how you are doing. I started with this agency a week before they changed software and the whole place is still in an uproar! I...

  2. Maybe OB nursing is not for me??

    HannahLeah replied to AndiRNschoolnurse's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Hi, I heard 3 things in your post that resonated with me and my experiences: small rural hospital, night shift OB and your sense of being "ready" after a few months of day shifts. In our small...

  3. Home health nurses and documentation problems - please help me understand.

    HannahLeah replied to nursetobeoneday's topic in Home Health

    oooo, my favorite gripe topic- I have the other side of this story and Im really glad it is in my rear-view mirror. As the "extra" RN at my last agency I looked on in horror as the case management...

  4. No More Mileage Pay!

    HannahLeah replied to pcbnurse's topic in Home Health

    Very rural, very large territory for me too- I am paid a per hour rate plus mileage of 4cents below the govt rate. A 4WD vehicle is an absolute must have here, and not one of those wimpy little ones...

  8. New Oasis C Has anyone seen it yet?

    HannahLeah replied to momsnurse's topic in Home Health

  9. Multiple Charts?

    HannahLeah posted a topic in Home Health

    Our HH agency uses 3 charts for each pt and I am wondering if there is a way to streamline this crazy set-up? There is a "hard chart" that stays in the office and holds paper copies of orders,...

  10. Difference in HH title/roles?

    HannahLeah replied to gypsyatheart's topic in Home Health

    this question hits home for me this weekend- I'm wearing all the hats for our agency and I'm tired! I am usually a back-up since I work every other weekend and only 2 other days a week but recently I...
