  2. CEU business idea

    I would suggest finding a state nursing board (it doesn't have to be your state) that requires CEU's for re-licensure and go through them for providership. There are several different ways to that depending on the board requirements. I choose singl...

  12. dx with a lipoma today, ever have one?

    I have seen lots lof patients with lipomas and would suggest that if it is not bothering you to just leave it alone! I have seen some who have nasty scars from having them removed and they were not having any symptoms with it. They are just little ...
  13. Z-coil shoes

    I have worn them (I have three pair!!) for the past year and 1/2 and just love them. Especially if you are on your feet for long periods of time and on hard floors. They made a huge difference for my back and knees which were really hurting from th...

    You have gotten lots of sympathy and great advice! I feel for you too. I have not had PF but have treated many with it. Since the mornings tend to be the worst, getting up and moving around, I suggest you take an orange and put it in the freezer and...
  19. Need advice on job opportunity

    Thanks Tom, I appreciate the input and advice. I really don't know what the requirements are in Arizona for recert since I have not done HH before. The agency mentioned every 90 days. That was a great idea about pro/con. The more I think about it t...
  20. Need advice on job opportunity

    This is strictly a supervisory position. The visits are required every 90 days. So I would not be directly involved in patient care. (I might miss that aspect). It is for 20 hours a week and the schedule is very flexible. I make my own schedule. ...
  21. Need advice on job opportunity

    No, it was not Kelly. A small agency (thus the need for only part time, which is what I am looking for) that has been in business for eleven years. They have about 80 case load. Yes, the paperwork looked very du-able. What do you think??
