  1. Why HH nurses quit

    Willow Moonsidhe replied to Willow Moonsidhe's topic in Home Health

    I totally agree and if you say anything it is about your time management. I thought what time management. I have no time left to manage except work. Most days I start at 7 am and end at 8 pm or 9 pm....

  2. Oasis review/ Coder

    Willow Moonsidhe replied to tk3100's topic in Home Health

    Our agency has a computer program that reviews discharge Oasis to SOC Oasis. I hate that thing. It is only as good as the nurse answering it. The SOC nurses in my opinion many times try to make those...

  3. Why HH nurses quit

    Willow Moonsidhe replied to Willow Moonsidhe's topic in Home Health

    It is kind of hard to chart, change a wound vac, a PICC line dressing and do an assessment all at the same time. And I don't know if any of the rest of you notice it but if you bury yourself into a...

  4. Why HH nurses quit

    Willow Moonsidhe replied to Willow Moonsidhe's topic in Home Health

    I have decided I am going to write to the government officials in my state and see if they are aware of how we are paid and the long hours we put in without enough compensation. Maybe the laws in our...

  5. Why HH nurses quit

    Willow Moonsidhe replied to Willow Moonsidhe's topic in Home Health

    This would definitely change the playing field if home health agencies had to pay by the hour like they use to. You would not be required to see 7 patients and drive 100 miles a day. They would know...

  6. Government Investigation of Amedisys

    Willow Moonsidhe replied to sweetsugar's topic in Home Health

    What you should be investigating is the labor practices. The patients never get enough

  7. Why HH nurses quit

    Willow Moonsidhe replied to Willow Moonsidhe's topic in Home Health

    It is irritating when a patient you have bent over backwards for calls the office for a ridiculous reason. I had this happen yesterday.

  8. Why HH nurses quit

    Willow Moonsidhe replied to Willow Moonsidhe's topic in Home Health

    I am not burnt out I just want a home life that is not consumed with patient care from 8 am to 9 or 10 pm for 5 days a week. I work those hours with no lunch I do not stop or take a break in hopes I...

    Yes Mercury is in Retrograde! LMAO Hugs

  11. Why HH nurses quit

    Willow Moonsidhe replied to Willow Moonsidhe's topic in Home Health

    I don't think people think it is easier. Nursing at its best is a hard profession. Older nurses are not always nurses who do not want to work. Depends on if you want your patients to feel the...

  12. Why HH nurses quit

    Willow Moonsidhe replied to Willow Moonsidhe's topic in Home Health

    This I find as an insult. I have worked Trauma, ICU, L&D and as a supervisor. I think it takes a smart nurse with a lot on the ball to do case management of a large patient load. Your assessment...

  13. Why HH nurses quit

    Willow Moonsidhe replied to Willow Moonsidhe's topic in Home Health

    I totally understand. I am so brain dead I can't even figure a cert period correctly. I think home health nurses should unionize and refused to do more than is a normal days work. At some point the...

  14. RNs opening cases, LPNs making all revisits?

    Willow Moonsidhe replied to HealthyNurse's topic in Home Health

    You must be a manager this is not a better

  15. Question to ER Nurses

    Willow Moonsidhe posted a topic in Emergency

    I have a question for the Emergency Room nurses. I am in my BSN program and I have an AD degree. I use to work ER and we had to do 5 case studies in the program for ER patients. Most were in an...

    Thanks everyone I appreciate it!

  17. Question to ER Nurses

    Willow Moonsidhe replied to Willow Moonsidhe's topic in Emergency

    Thanks, I tried to tell this teacher in the real world in the ER if a patient is truly unresponsive you are not going to be giving pain medication because you could send them into respiratory distress...

  18. Question to ER Nurses

    Willow Moonsidhe replied to Willow Moonsidhe's topic in Emergency

    Please understand I know this is a stupid question but my teacher will not pass my main paper until I find an answer and put in the paper for this. If someone is truly unresponsive in my book they are...

  19. RNs opening cases, LPNs making all revisits?

    Willow Moonsidhe replied to HealthyNurse's topic in Home Health

    Yes in TN they are. Not sure about other areas.

  20. RNs opening cases, LPNs making all revisits?

    Willow Moonsidhe replied to HealthyNurse's topic in Home Health

    That is why I left Amedisys. I do not want to stay up all night with paperwork. I did not become a RN to be a government paper pusher.

  21. Home Health RN should Unionize and Strike

    Willow Moonsidhe posted a topic in Home Health

    I think all the RN's in HH should Unionize and Strike pending being treated like a human being and also being able to do continuity of care. The very thing Medicare thought they were creating they did...

    Willow Moonsidhe replied to Willow Moonsidhe's topic in Tennessee Nursing

    ok this problem had to do with that specific university it seems wanting status in TN. They are still suggesting I move to TN university. Makes me

  23. Question

    Willow Moonsidhe posted a topic in Tennessee Nursing

    If you are going for a RN to BSN in Tennessee does the school have to be within the State of Tennessee? I was told that by a college today. Thanks!

  24. Question

    Willow Moonsidhe replied to Willow Moonsidhe's topic in Tennessee Nursing

    I spoke back with the University of Phoenix and they are saying TN is the only state that has this rule. I will check with the Boards tomorrow and let you know for sure. I will have to change schools...

  25. Question

    Willow Moonsidhe replied to Willow Moonsidhe's topic in Tennessee Nursing

    I would think so also but the advisor from one of the big Universities told me that today. The Boards have closed for today or I would have called. Just wanted to see if anyone else has heard this....
