I work for Kforce right now, and it's been such a joke. Never never again. I spoke to InteliStaff where I'll be moving to and I asked them a lot of questions regarding problems I"m having with Kforce and they sounded great. They sent me a book wor...

Hi I work for an agency in PA, and I just recently worked a shift at my first nursing home ever.....and I had 21 patients. I have read somewhere the ratio is 1:20. This is outrageous! There is no good way to give "good" care to 21 patients. Meds,...

why on earth do you people WANT to work like that? I was very stressed being my first time at the place and having soooo many patients, and I also felt so unfulfilled as a nurse, no time to teach, educate, just enough time to barely get meds and do ...

I always hung K series...where I worked was always very careful to what I would hang....but then again as long as I wasn't mixing it they'd let me hang stuff such as Pitocin in NS or whatever.

I am from sacramento, but currently live in PA. I hate PA, and miss Sac incredibly. I will be moving back in June and living with my parents in Ione until I can get my feet on the ground. I've had job offers at St. Josephs Med Center in Stockton. ...

well I'll probably be attacked for saying this, but I'm NOT a smoker, and I'm very against it especially after all the very ill patients I've seen from smoking with COPD, trachs, vents, etc....but I don't preach at work, it's their business, but my o...

I know everyone has already posted on this. But again where I worked in CA it was at the very very minimum 2 days, and that was even rare. Insurance out there covers a max of 4 days, unless mom is having severe medical problems, in which they will ...

I feel for you! I've worked in a subacute and postpartum *with med/surg gyn patients*. Tonight is my first night as staffing in a med/surg unit and I'm so nervous, I'll let ya know how my nite goes!

I just moved to Warrington, PA from CA. I just started with KForce Staffing, and I've never worked Med/Surg specifically before so I"m a bit nervous. Tonight is my first shift. I've read lots of great info about new to med/surg, but I fear that be...
