The wife of a lawyer told me they have started using blue ink in his office because copiers do such a good job at coping it is the only way to tell which one is the orginal.

I love child life. My son is special needs. They go above and beyond with trying to find the best toys for him in the hospital and trying to explain everything. He actually understands a lot but has trouble communicating.

You have to have graduate before the start date.

Since you have experience, private duty nursing is pretty easy to get into until you're able to find what you want. I have heard dallas has bad traffic but I don't think Ft. Worth has the same problem but then again I'm from Houston which HORRIBLE tr...

I heard Coke is the only company in the US to legal be able to bring cocaine into the country. Which they then sell to the phamaceutical companies.

For the last 6 years, I've basically been a stay at home mom except for school. I wasn't the best home maker. We lived with my parents which made it hard. Now that we're living on our own, I found I miss the role of a house wife. I actually learned t...

I never said provide. I said let. I do understand how badly my original post read. ICK. I will be asking again but I will be rereading my post at least ten times before posting it to make sure I'm EXTREMELY clear.

RNsRWe-We also have do have respite hours but that is not the hours I'm talking about because I also can't go to a job while using those hours. Since I would be working through an agency, wouldn't the case manager be making random visits to my home? ...

PLEASE READ BEFORE RESPONDING!!!I'm sorry I should of waited till my second wind before starting this thread. I can see how badly my original post read.I am NOT repeat NOT talking about a government program. Tax dollars are not being used. Because o...

I understand your response. I did make myself sound like a welfare abuser! Sorry, I wasn't very clear. My son is medically dependent. He has private duty nursing (trach, g-button, can't do any ADL). In some states, if you are a nurse and you have a ...

My son used to be in the hospital a lot. I was told by the nurses that I make them feel bad because I make them feel like their ignoring us. :) I do all of his ADL's so a lot of the time the nurses only come in when he needs meds and then apologize f...

Has anyone heard from L&D? I've gotten an email saying they're reviewing my app but nothing else.

I would work on getting your BSN. In Texas, you can not work as a PCA if your an RN. Just keep looking. Apply to everything!!

I have an ipad, love it to look around the internet but for school work nope. You can't easily use blackboard with it. I don't know if you can get a writting app on Ipad since you'll be doing a lot of papers. Also, so you can't get the right software...

It might be her take home pay is that mcuh. She might of screwed herself with student loans and that might be where her salary is going.

I work private duty. If my patient doesn't want a nurse I don't work. If I get back into a hospital, I really hope to get Thankagiving off. I'll work Christmas and New Year's without complaint.

I certainly agree! My little preemie has taught me more in the last 6 years then first 25!

Hello, I applied to ER, L&D, and NICU. I'm working in home health right now so I decided not to apply to anything I don't love. I haven't heard anything.

I loved that I got a med-surg unit after grad. But I'm truly drowning in it, I fighting tooth and nail to be a good nurse. So I will always give props for med-surg! You do have some of the hardest work in the hospital!

My son was a frequent flyer there. The nurses are treated very well. A lot of his nurses sold me on TCH but unfortantely being a new grad I couldn't in. I have been told they have great benefits but I think they pay a little less.

I'm a mother of a little guy that has nurses. Y'all do such an amazing job. We're moving away next week and it breaks my heart to lose my nurses. It's hard to find excellent home health nurses who treat him like their own.

Beautiful! After I finally get some experience, I thinking of becoming a hospice nurse.

I'm a new grad that starts next month in med-surg and you can bet your booty that on day one I'll have coverage!

My son has home health nursing and has a nurse go to school with him. Last week, my son was in the hospital. Apparently, no one told the nurse he was discharged. So she just didn't come to work today. So my question is, if nobody notified you that y...

I'm in the same boat as you. Right now I'm getting my BSN to try to help. I've looked all over Texas. My son's disabled so I can't leave Tx. Home Health, Nursing Homes, Rural hospitals, etc everywhere
