    I've worked for Fresenius in the trenches from Maine to California. I know what's going on. Been there done that. Got the T-shirt to prove it AAMOF. All I'm saying is you are wasting your time....

    NO FMC bought a unionized unit from St. Francis........ Before Liberity Dialysis could get in. Guess it couldn't have been that good St. Francis had to sell it. BTW Hawaii might not be able to have...

  4. Dialysis center Business?

    Onekidneynurse replied to jtanga's topic in Dialysis, Renal, Urology

    Are you a close friend of Bill Gates? The paper work to start would probably drown you. A very lofty goal. You'll need more than a certificate. You need a water system and most RO's reject 95% of...

    Onekidneynurse replied to herring_RN's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    No, I'm pretty sure they are quite brilliant....... And that was my point they are working for all the nurses in town. And those that don't bother with the politics benefit. Without paying... Good...

    Onekidneynurse replied to F200's topic in Dialysis, Renal, Urology

    Unions are far from being fair. And the reason for that is because they are fun by fallible human beings. If the shop steward don't like you you won't get anything. You need to know not believe. If...

    Onekidneynurse replied to F200's topic in Dialysis, Renal, Urology

    Maybe most of them don't have complaints? Good luck trying to start a union against Fresenius. You'll get as far as the front door of your unit. It won't happen in San Diego, SF, BFE, or anywhere...

    Onekidneynurse replied to herring_RN's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    I've had both CIGNA and United Healthcare. Never had a problem with them. I used to drive a Chevy never had a problem with that either. My son was in a Veterans hospital. It was old and dirty. And...

    Onekidneynurse replied to CaLLaCoDe's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    The sob story was an inappropriate statement in this instance. I just kinda get tired of the left playing on people's sympathies. There are just as many stories for the other side. There are many who...

    Onekidneynurse replied to CaLLaCoDe's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Yes we do have compassion in this country for our ANIMALS. Why do we keep people alive in pain. Curled up in a fetal position covered in decubs? I don't call that compassionate. Maybe you should join...

    Onekidneynurse replied to AM FRANCES's topic in Dialysis, Renal, Urology

    Here's some info. Don't settle. In that area there should be plenty of competition for you. You are an RN. They need RN's.

  22. Anyone working for FMC annoyed by this?

    Onekidneynurse replied to CocoaGirl's topic in Dialysis, Renal, Urology

    I'm hoping patients and families will refuse HD. I've seen too many old ladies cry that they don't want to be there but their families want them to be there. It's sad. I've seen people come from the...

  23. DIALYSIS VS MED/SURG

    Onekidneynurse replied to TrAuMaRN86's topic in Dialysis, Renal, Urology

    This is my opinion. You need at least a year of chronics before you do acutes. When you are on call all alone at 0100 you need to know how to trouble shoot the machine and any problems you might...

    Onekidneynurse replied to herring_RN's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    If the union nurses really care about the patients and they feel management doesn't i.e. poor staffing levels, what do they do to ensure the patients are taken care of ? I don't leave my assignment...
