  2. Starting back in nursing

    Marshall1 replied to Mandy LVN's topic in Health, Stress Management

    First off, good for you for getting yourself help. It sounds like you are doing much better. I personally think your anxiety over returning to work is normal and understandable. I am in a similar...

  3. Any opinions on Nightingale Travel Agency?

    Marshall1 replied to Marissa00's topic in Agency Nurses

    I am seriously considering going agency - I want flexibility & my only hold up is I can't travel other than locally so I'm hoping to find an agency or two where I can work within an hour of my...

  4. Anyone here who hate the holidays?

    Marshall1 replied to Brian's topic in Nurses Rock

    One of the beautiful things about being an adult is you really, truly, don't have to do anything you don't want to - even if you feel guilty. A few years back my spouse and I had enough of the fake...

  5. Moving to GA From NE FLA; Information and Advise Appreciated.

    Marshall1 replied to ATIGA's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Adel/Valdosta are in Ga aren't they? The Florida BON was not a problem to get a endorsement for but this was in 1991 so I don't know what requirements are but you can go to their web site and check....

  6. When are you too old to start Nursing school?

    Marshall1 replied to bluedawg's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Don't worry about finding a job..you haven't even started school yet and there are jobs out there that are not 12 hrs/hospital though that may be the route you want to take. If this is something you...

  7. called in sick, nurse manager calling back (inappropriate tactics?)

    Marshall1 replied to jbaggins's topic in General Nursing

    needshaldol: I think OP means taking 3 ICU patients. Not working 3

  8. called in sick, nurse manager calling back (inappropriate tactics?)

    Marshall1 replied to jbaggins's topic in General Nursing

    For the NM to call was definitely inappropriate in this situation. You are not your husbands keeper and he did call to let the NM know he was sick and wouldn't be coming in. If he has just not shown...

  9. have anyone been Denied a GA license?

    Marshall1 replied to GoosbyLPN's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I haven't heard this..it seems if you are licensed in one state that would be enough for Ga. I was licensed in another state and had no problem getting an RN license here. Maybe the BON for Ga. can...

  10. PLEASE HELP ME!!

    Marshall1 replied to Nursing1104's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Whether you can sit the board in another state would depend on the that states BON requirements - so you need to start contacting them. I would also suggest contacting the BON in Ga. and ask their...

  11. From being a nurse to a flight attendant

    Marshall1 replied to abschick's topic in Nursing Career

    What about traveling as a nurse? Alot of agencies now offer "local" or in state travel - you would get to see different places, avoid the office politics, make good money and take (or not) your family...

  12. Are there any colleges in GA that DO NOT require TEAS?

    Marshall1 replied to madamlexxa's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Brenau Women's College...it's now Brenau University. Brenau

  13. Are there any colleges in GA that DO NOT require TEAS?

    Marshall1 replied to madamlexxa's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Can't help you as I'm not sure what TEAS is as it was not a requirement when I went to school. Only suggestion I have is to contact the schools you are interested in applying to and see what the...

  14. No calls...

    Marshall1 replied to mbward's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I agree w/Sun0408..until you have your license I don't think you will hear much, if anything, from anyone - even with your Paramedic experience so try not to get too down..concentrate on finishing,...

  15. I confess...I'm a nurse who doesn't want to work in a hospital again

    Marshall1 replied to Marshall1's topic in General Nursing

    I was offered and accepted home health position. She wanted 5 days/wk plus call. I told her I'd prefer part time (3 days) and would help with call. I was honest..told her I was in the process of...

  16. Offered job shadowing after interview...what does that mean?

    Marshall1 replied to army mommy of three's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Job shadowing is becoming more the norm now..even for those of us with experience. Good to keep your options open elsewhere until you have a firm

  17. I confess...I'm a nurse who doesn't want to work in a hospital again

    Marshall1 replied to Marshall1's topic in General Nursing

    Thank you all for your comments and suggestions...I am honestly surprised more than one or two other nurses understand/feel like I do. I sometimes think if I could get into a speciality - like ER -...

  18. Rockdale Medical Center, Conyers Hospital, Lifepoint Facility

    Marshall1 replied to transducen's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Always hear positive about

  19. At the end of my rope...hate nursing.

    Marshall1 replied to Brittany2206's topic in General Students

    Working as a CNA will have little, if any effect on your being able to obtain employment as a nurse so staying at the hospital when you hate it so much doesn't make sense - especially if you don't...

  20. When it rains, it pours.

    Marshall1 replied to HeadingWest's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Go to the VA interviews..if you don't you will regret it. Even as a Vet getting hired into the VA takes months at the least so you have time. If/when the job opens up for you at the VA, just be honest...

  21. RN jobs and financial checks

    Marshall1 replied to lagalanurse's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Don't think it would keep you from getting a job..there are other posts about this subject and by and large I don't think most places even look at

  22. How much a RN teaching Cna course get paid in GA

    Marshall1 replied to kuntanya's topic in Georgia Nursing

    You would need to contact the schools that offer these programs and see if they are hiring. You would also check glassdoor.com for salary info though I'm not sure how accurate it is. Most CNA/MA...

    Marshall1 posted a topic in Home Health

    Have an opportunity to work for this company in a HH (PT) position. Can't seem to find anything negative about their HH division...any feedback would be greatly appreciated - feel free to PM me if you...

  24. Can't stand dialysis

    Marshall1 replied to Tfunke25's topic in Dialysis, Renal, Urology

    Dialysis is one of those areas of nursing that people either hate it or love it...that being said, I while I agree everyone should give a position a fair chance, I don't agree with staying at ANY job...

  25. What to do when the Doctor wont call back??

    Marshall1 replied to sleepdeprived1's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    Always, always, always document every time you call a doctor - not just when he/she calls you back. If you wait 30 min or so in this case and the doctor hasn't returned the call, call again and...
