In the antepartum unit, how often would you work with newborns? IF it is not frequently, I think the adult might be better general experience. Unless you are primarily interested in newborns/NICU

there are laws and standards as far as OSHA, etc that you probably need to know. You need protocols in place, esp as a new grad. Agreed, I would get out unless there is a major incentive to stay

I am confused as to whether the current per diem jobs are rehab or acute hospital, and what your long term goals are - would need to know that

CardiacDork, did you end up taking a CM job? I am wondering the same things...

Dorky question, but what is a typical day like for you? Did you like med surg nursing? Just curious.. What do you spend most of your day doing/what is the breakdown like (calling facilities/companies to set up services vs meeting w/patients or famili...

Thanks. That sounds reasonable based on what I have read. If you have time to answer, do you work at a large or small hospital, community vs academic medical center? Do you do both UR and CM? Would love to know more about your favorite vs least favor...

Thought I would try to revive this thread since I am interviewing for a hospital CM position next week. The recruiter didnt have any info as to specifics for the position; I am meeting w the hiring manager. I have experience in mental health, clinic,...

I would ask about caseload #s, % of work done in office vs community if you are going into the community, major population/diagnoses

OP: curious, which job did you take and how did you like it? what are you doing now? I'm exploring similar options

Along with taking a CDI course/getting a CCS certification, would inpatient UR be a doable path to CDI? I am really interested in CDI but don't have any med surg experience, although I've been a nurse for over 10 years. My experience is in psych (inp...

Trying to decide if I should stay where I am for another 6 months or a year. I have been working for almost a year as a manager for a new community mental health case management program. I used to work for the company almost 10 years ago and stayed i...

no.

maybe a case manager for an accountable care organization? https://www.cms.gov/Medicare/Medicare-Fee-for-Service-Payment/ACO/

I had a similar experience doing phone triage in primary care. Taking one call after another without any control is exhausting

INTP here...any other INTP nurses? what specialty are you in? I've spent most of my career in mental health, a little bit of time in primary care/ambulatory. Staff nursing and case management.

If you dont want to do bedside nursing, it seems like the case management job might make more sense? Unless you want to do 12 hr shifts and/or nights..

Lots of nursing schools and lots of new grads. I wouldn't say finding a job is easy. I've lived in MA my whole life so hard to comment on cost of living vs salary.. cost of living in MA is high, esp downtown Boston. I"d be open to living outside of t...

I am interviewing for a telephonic case management for UHC. I am trying to figure out if working at home (pros, cons, etc)? Any info would be much appreciated!! Thanks

I have done some research and think that RM could be a good fit for me and try heading in that direction. In the meantime, I have a job offer and a couple potential offers that I am trying to decide btw. The last 2.5 yrs I have worked as a float rn f...

Het into the system. When someone else leaves you can bet more hours

WHat are you interested in? I know people who have gone from corrections to ED

I shadowed in the ED today at a hospital affiliated w/the outpatient group I work for. I had applied/interviewed//shadowed/been unoffically offered a position by the manager about 1.5 yrs ago, but I hadn't been at my current position 6 mo, so per HR...

I think there is a hospital in Denver that has a medical ED unit- I can't get the website to work but if you google 'denver eating disorder unit' you will find it We have 1 psych facility with an ED specialty floor where I am THere are more residenti...

I am wondering if it is OK/appropriate to ask to shadow in one of the EDs for my hospital system I have applied to a different type of job elsewhere, and am waiting to hear back I am having 2nd thoughts about accepting this position (I am anticipatin...

WHat would you say about midshifters (3-11/11-11 ED)? ; )
