Hi There, I am sure you are the cutest! How do you like HemoDialysis? Do you work full- time? How do you find the Hemodialysis work environment? Thanks for your response........ Regards, Sue :)

Hi There, Are you working days and afternoons or are you still in school? How do you rate the workload and stress for us 50+ Nurses?? It looks like you work part-time...what degree are you seeking? Regards, Sue :)

It is so nice to hear how you love your job. I think once we reach this age we wouldn't be doing what we don't love. Aren't the elderly wonderful...they are so precious...I too spent some time working in LTC and it was very rewarding......Great to hear from you....Best wishes in your practice. Regards, Sue :)

Hi, I don't know about LPN jobs as I am an RN. May I suggest you continue to inquire to the LPN's. I know great LPN's are always in demand. I was an LPN for 14 years before I was an RN. Loved it. Please keep trying......Good luck in your venture... Sue

The best of luck to you in your nursing studies....I'm sure the patient's will respond to a more mature attitude....... Sue :chuckle

Thank you Karen for your kind words. I too with take a short drive to the Ocean to remind me how lucky I am...... Sue

Nurses who take their time dispensing Rx for pain and who have an attitude about it....eg.."He can wait".... :angryfire

Hi, I'm taking a poll......who is still in Nursing and 50 or over and what field are you in!! Sue age 56 :chuckle

I am a 56 year old RN and working in Phone Triage.....Good for you in your endeaver......your life experience will be a great help for you....

I am a Schoolcraft College ADN graduate in 1984. Hard but great program.. and we love you Mrs. Steffke an outstanding Instructor...prepared me well for Nursing...Med-Surg, Cardiac, Home Care; Geriatric, Pediatric, Psychiatric and Phone Triage........... :rotfl:

So nice to hear you made the transistion well from CT. I am moving from Michigan at the end of the month and am so very excited. It has been a dream of mine since I was 21. I am 56 now. I have been a Nurse for 34years and last year made between 55,000 and 60,000 in Phone Triage. I plan to get back in Home Care and know the wage is much less than I make in Michigan. I have found a reasonably priced apartment in Sanford and have family in the Orlando.... Have you found the "new way of life" in Florida to be a gentler easy way of life? What type of Nursing do you do? I would love to hear your thoughts on this.... :)

Hi Floridian, I am from Michigan now moving to Florida. I moved down briefly when I was 21 only to have to come back. My sister and Husband moved down 25 yrs. ago and now my parents and 4 brothers and sisters reside in Florida. I feel awful that the commercialism has made such a change in the environment. I try to avoid the busy areas and will be living in Sanford instead of Orlando. I have a love for Florida deep in my heart. Have been coming down for short visits for 30 yrs. Hopefully you won't have to move far from the place you grew up. My hope goes out to you. Love your State.... Best wishes.

This is the original poster.....I am signing my lease in Sanford the end of this month. I have found a reasonable and tropical place to live. I am so very excited. I am taking a much needed month off from work to feel out the area and get my dog and cat used to their new environment.........

At our Call Center we are called Nurse Consultants. Hope this helps. Sue in Michigan :)

Hi There.... What city are you in? Is there an office in Florida?
