    Azdream'nRN replied to jeannepaul's topic in Hospice, Palliative

    Vista Care bought out Odyssey here in Albuquerque. Prior to that, they fired oodles of GOOD NURSES, the director and the nurse manager, after they fired me. It was a place of very low morale anyhow...

    Azdream'nRN posted a topic in Arizona Nursing

    Azdream'nRN replied to rn4ever7411's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    Dear Kamiworm, Wow, congratuations on getting a BSN. It looks like there won't be a shortage anymore for nursing for a long time. Why not continue with your studies and go for a Physicians Assistant?...

  6. Odyssey Healthcare on call and triage nurses

    Azdream'nRN replied to jeannepaul's topic in Hospice, Palliative

    Dear Texas Flower, Hi. I would not work for this company. They hire new nurses all the time, then they fire them one by one. Their main firing issues have to do with first of all, asking their...

  7. Nursing at Fort Defiance Indian Hospital

    Azdream'nRN replied to Azdream'nRN's topic in Arizona Nursing

    The 638 status or "going tribal" as they say, simply means that they are no longer having to answer to the U.S. Federal government about how they spend their money. They become their own independent...

  8. Nursing at Fort Defiance Indian Hospital

    Azdream'nRN replied to Azdream'nRN's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I was considering contacting the ER director about an independent contract position as $50 per hour is a decent scale and I could do a lot with that kind of money, however, my friend who quit there...

  9. New nurse quiting after 7 months of working.

    Azdream'nRN replied to TxRNtoCaRN's topic in General Nursing

    If I were you, I would try and land a job there before I even quit the one you are orienting with and they might welcome this sort of thing. Let them know that you have to move there because of your...

  10. Failed nursing student

    Azdream'nRN replied to bobokoama's topic in General Nursing

    About getting your LPN...why not call the board of nursing in New Mexico? They might have some idea about how you can get through the LPN exam. That would help you a lot in getting your foot in the...

  11. Failed nursing student

    Azdream'nRN replied to bobokoama's topic in General Nursing

    I have another suggestion, why not take the LPN exam in another state? Just call around and ask if you could do this. I don't think they all have the same exact rules. Being an LPN would officially...

  12. Failed nursing student

    Azdream'nRN replied to bobokoama's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with the above posts. Don't give up. Just look at this as a bump in the road. Something similar happened to me in my third semester of ADN school as well and I was back in my classes the...

    Have you ever worked at St. Vincents Hospital, good and bad...? I work there PRN and have worked there for the past few years. Santa Fe is a very nice community and a scenic place to live, but...

  16. Woman refuses CS, charged with murder

    Azdream'nRN replied to crankyasanoldma's topic in Ob/Gyn

    It seems like there is much more to the story than is being told. This woman obviously did not have the real care or concern of the medical staff. The laws are quick now to interfere into peoples...

    Azdream'nRN replied to KarenAR's topic in Nursing Career

    Dear Texasagain, Thank you for this enlightening article and link....it seems like the safety of these machines has not been established in elderly patients...and prehaps younger groups...thanks...

  19. Colon therapy and enemas.

    Azdream'nRN replied to skybirdrising's topic in General Nursing

    Adrianurse, why would we lose our licenses as nurses if we did colon hydrotherapy? I am not informed about any of this. I know of a woman who practices this, and her clients are from a varied social...

    Azdream'nRN replied to MrsWampthang's topic in General Nursing

    My former sister in law described herself as "not a people person." She never even had children. Each year was the same predictable Christmas gift. And that was something from Hickory Farms for every...

    Azdream'nRN replied to Soy's topic in California Nursing

    Dear Amycar, How I feel for you! You would have to take the CGFNS before you come to the USA and all of that paperwork is transferred to the hospital where you will be working. You would need their...

  23. Recruitment of international students who studied nursing in the US

    Azdream'nRN replied to Soy's topic in California Nursing

    I forgot to add, that once you get into this contract with that agency, then you can't leave them if you want to just because of the high work demand, frequently changing assignments, etc., until you...

  24. Recruitment of international students who studied nursing in the US

    Azdream'nRN replied to Soy's topic in California Nursing

    The only problem I see with this is that you are a new graduate nurse. If this agency is going to float you from one hospital to another or even to another floor in the same hospital for 8-13 week...

  25. Need advice/help w/bad situation!

    Azdream'nRN replied to gypsyatheart's topic in Ob/Gyn

    For God's sake, call JCAHO!! The public in general would not want to deliver their babies there if they knew the risk that they were under at your hospital. I would personally not want to work there....
