Hi, try Ressurection Healthcare System. Good Luck.

:nurse:Yes, I started about a year ago 1 day per week. It's a big area - as an RN you can do Nursing Visits, IV therapy or Home Care 1;1 - care of chronically ill child, most with trach, Gtube, Ventilator. You get to change the Trach! I love the experience and you get to know the families. All HomeCare agencies will have you do classes and review policy/procedure on all aspects of HomeCare. Try it you'll like it.

Hi, I'm trying to get Registered with the Irish Nursing Board. I've been notified that I must do an Adaptation period, "6 - 12 weeks or beyond" per the letter I received from them. Others have posted on the process involved so I realize my BSN and 20+ years experience does not matter to the Board. In the hope of getting Registered in Ireland, I plan on taking a leave from work here, but I need a timeframe. Has anyone out there completed an Adaptation in Ireland? How long was your Adaptation? What did it entail? Clinicals? Classes? Did you get Registered? Or did you have to appeal? Did you do it yourself or through an agency?? Thanks! ChicagoNurse

Don't decide to drop out yet. Do group study. Sign up for courses that can transfer to another field in healthcare just in case. Nursing school is hard and stressful. My pediatric clinicals made me rethink if nursing was for me, I cried after those clinicals. It affected me what people can do to a child. I got through and if direct patient care is not for you, there are many options out there in Nursing. You decide what's best for you.

Florida BON should have info. Also check out Nurse.com site for employment opportunities in that region. Good luck!
