I have a question for experienced home health nurses out there!! I have 3 years hospital experience but I am new to home health (and I do love it very much so far!). The other day, an LVN and I disagreed about a certain pt's need for a HHA. I feel ...

:uhoh21: I am an RN DON at a rural nursing home of about 45 residents. We are currently getting ready to move to a new nursing home in town. We have an interim administrator and he asked me to do something I don't feel comfortable about doing. Sta...

This is my wife's log in name, but I just had to ask where's the cop and the indian or even the construction worker? lol This poster made me laugh. Like nursemike said, I'm sure they're all great nurses. It's just a funny poster, especially the sno...

I guess you're right. I just wanted to get some comments from some guys who maybe felt the same way. I might make a post in the nursing student forum and see if some girls maybe had the same feelings. :) EDIT: Whoops this is my wife's name..lol

Thanks Pearldora!! I had no idea....that was really helpful...I am with RNNetwork right now and they are so good to me but I was just wanting to check out all my options. I think I will just play it safe and stick with them b/c they are so dependab...

I have been trying to find the travel company "World Health" on the web...do they have a website? Thanks.

I don't struggle to pay any bills. In fact, I am making enough to pay extra on my debt. I have only traveled here to Midland, TX on my first assignment and I renewed my contract here....we had to leave Louisiana due to Hurricane Katrina and I knew ...

I don't mind answering at all! I don't know how the housing is that they set up because I took the housing subsidy and found my own apartment. They have a great subsidy. I do know that they allow pets. I think they do cover utilities up to a certai...

I took my first assignment with RNNetwork Oct 2005 here in Midland TX and they have been good to me so far. I renewed for another 26 weeks because the job was so great. The pay is ok, but not as much as the other companies pay. They do give you a ...

I have recently taken my first travel assignment as an RN due to Hurricane Katrina. I went through RNNetwork and got a great assignment in Midland, Texas. The pay is pretty good, but the service through the company is wonderful. In the middle of a...

Thank you all for your supportive replies! I am going to take a few weeks vacation and maybe then I will find some insight. I am seriously considering ICU as my next venture! Thanks again for the advice! :)

Hello Fellow Nurses! I am sorry to begin on such a negative note (as I am generally a positive person), but I am having such a hard time enjoying nursing! I began in med-surg a year ago and did that for 6 months. Now I am doing Ortho nursing bec...

Yeah I tried to talk to a superior administrator and they know all about it...apparently that is just common practice...and I talked to some of the older nurses, and they said that they see this sort of thing in alot of nursing homes....Louisiana is ...

I totally agree with all of you...I am so glad to know that I am not crazy for thinking it is definitely wrong to do this....all of the "managers" at my facility are mad because I won't just fill in the gaps in the MARs with my initials and that I wo...

Yes, I definitely feel that it's wrong and unethical...my first instinct was to call state and the BON to make sure...I just wanted some feedback first...this is the 3rd or 4th time they have asked me to do something I felt funny about...I think I am...

hey thanx for all the replies. I went to the tech college just now to ask some questions about the lpn program and the lady there was so rude. I didn't get all the questions I wanted answered, but she did answer some. I'll be starting in August if I ...

Hi, I am just finishing remedials at college. My major is nursing, RN. However I have about a year and half to go before I start clinicals, if I can get in with waiting list etc., and then another 2 years or so after that. I am considering going to t...

Hey all!!:roll I am currently living in Louisiana. I will graduate as an RN in May 2004 and would love to start my nursing career in Florida!! My main question is what kind of money do nurses make in Florida? I have been unable to get any sort of...
