  1. Is moving to North Port, FL a good idea when I graduate?

    itsmejuli replied to 2 r MC1R's topic in Florida Nursing

    Stay where you are. The job market here in FL is not good for new or experienced nurses. Read through this forum and you'll find lots of threads on this

  2. Thinking of moving to Florida!

    itsmejuli replied to luvtwilight's topic in Florida Nursing

    Definitely take a trip down here and go job hunting before you consider moving here. See what kind of offers you get and then decide. Florida is a difficult place to be now. FL unemployment is sitting...

  3. regret?

    itsmejuli replied to pinkygirl's topic in General Nursing

    One of the best things about being human is our ability to reinvent ourselves when need be. Nobody said you had to love nursing and nobody says you have to be a nurse forever. Do what makes you happy...

  7. Help! RN with one year HH experience and still can't get a hospital job

    itsmejuli replied to cutegrltoyaRN's topic in Florida Nursing

  8. discharge postponed due to weather...does insurance/Medicare pay?

    itsmejuli replied to nervousnurse's topic in General Nursing

    I think its more likely that the hospital will eat the cost of an extra night in the hospital rather than bill the patient. Most hospital contracts are not per diem based whether through Medicare or...

    itsmejuli replied to pearljammer's topic in General Nursing

    itsmejuli replied to joanna73's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

  18. Patient care and insurance, a little vent.

    itsmejuli replied to Tait's topic in General Nursing
