    What kind of nurse are you?

    Why you may NOT enjoy those units... Okay! Surgical: Depends, do you want to work IN the OR? On on an actual unit taking care of post surgical patients? OR, I know practically zilch about; the...

  4. I had a membership for a few years... it was part of my "clinical ladder", for the Magnet hospital I used to work for. Anyway, I kept my membership for quite a while, just didn't get around to...

    Going to Patient's home without patient consent

    I'll admit, I worked for a home health agency that used questionable practices. However, even they understood that "no means no". Again though, HH agencies don't just receive the patient's info...

    Going to Patient's home without patient consent

    Again... merely going to the house doesn't violate HIPAA. If a doctor or anyone else just arbitrarily sends a patient's information to the HH agency without permission, then yes that would be the...

    Going to Patient's home without patient consent

    I'm not understanding the HIPAA violation part. Usually the patient, while in the hospital, agrees to use a certain home health agency. THEN at that point, the patient's information is sent to...

    Hiring an RN into private practice

    CuriousMD, I'll just stand up and say, if you were near me I'd work for you in a heartbeat... just not full time. I actually need a part-time/PRN gig and something like that would be great. Just...

    PRN Question

    In my experience, Home Health works that way, but I've never worked in a facility like that. You work when you're on the schedule. That's how it usually is. Either plan to work/be on call on the...

    Hiring an RN into private practice

    I can see maybe a nurse in the later stages of her career looking for something that is laid back, with less pay being OK. I can see myself doing something like that, maybe when my kids are both out...

    Hiring an RN into private practice

    Sounds very interesting and intriguing. I wonder if you would even necessarily need RN's. Maybe LPN's. I wish I knew how to answer this! So have you tried using the employment websites to

    What Do Nurses Want?

    Hmmm... if you have Cook-Out restaurant in Pitt, I hear their burgers are good. I also enjoy a good burger from Hardee's/Carl's Jr. You just can't quite beat a couple of basic cheeseburgers from McD's...

    I am sorry but I had to do this...

    Oh thank you! :) Okay, what it was, there was a closed topic and the OP mentioned someone "straining" Grandma. So I was like, "I didn't know straining Grandma was a thing!" Then the drawing "Let's...

    Manager said something covertly racist

    I'm sorry that your manager acts the way she does. From what you write, doing anything about it other than trying to find another job... would be utterly pointless. That's why I bolded the part...
