    Marshall1 replied to Blueberrz's topic in General Nursing

    Give yourself space better work and school if you can..a few weeks..then, after going to work..see how you feel in 6 months to a year. You've been through a rigorous time. That isn't to dismiss your...

    Marshall1 replied to aheartsaverrn's topic in General Nursing

  3. RN dialysis positions...I must be missing something...

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

    12 or 15 chairs..the shift begins at 0615 so I am assuming the first patient is there about that time or shortly thereafter. I am really torn about this..the steady income which is really good, not...

  4. RN dialysis positions...I must be missing something...

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

    Ugh...that's what I thought. There are 2 shifts run at this clinic..its small but it sounds like with the 2 that still means more than the 10 to 10.5 hrs. They would keep nurses if they would be...

  5. Dialysis nursing

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

    I suggest applying directly to their web site instead of via monster.com etc. Also, if you can get the recruiters name/fax send your info directly to them. I was offered a position at FMC but after...

  8. Out-of-State New Grad Applying Needs Direction

    Marshall1 replied to Prettyladie's topic in Georgia Nursing

    The job market is lousy here..Georgia was actually LAST out of ALL the states for jobs in Aug. Unless or until you have your Ga. license or at least the temp. one, it's a waste of your time to apply...

  9. Which Job Should I Take?

    Marshall1 replied to SparkleRN's topic in General Nursing

  11. Question regarding leaving job during orientation

    Marshall1 replied to Beth BSN, RN's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with the above responses..sometimes we know early on a position isn't for us. To think it would get any better is not reality based from the problem you mentioned. Don't see why she would...

  12. Why do hiring managers say they will call and don't???

    Marshall1 replied to Marshall1's topic in General Nursing

    I definitely would call them...HR and if you don't get an answer then politely call the nurse manager..you should at least be told you weren't hired instead of finding out online. I know some on here...

    Marshall1 replied to nervousnurse's topic in General Nursing

    I would LOVE to get out of nursing..have done it for over 20 yrs and that does not count the nursing assistant years while in college and working on my degree. I get the same thing.."you are such a...

  14. How far would you drive to work?

    Marshall1 replied to loveishope's topic in General Nursing

    I too live some distance from big hospitals..I recently accepted a position where I will drive 48 miles (an hour) one way so I can work a PRN position. The drive is something a lot of people said...

    Marshall1 replied to nicubee's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I don't know of any hospitals that hire LPN's either...mostly LTC, home health sometimes and hospice sometimes, doctors offices. There are a few places for developmentally disabled that hire LPN's but...

  16. Should I move to Atlanta?!

    Marshall1 replied to UpstateNY786's topic in Georgia Nursing

    You need to contact the Board of Nursing re: LPN requirements however, reciprocity is usually offered. As far as LPN pay, like RN pay, it varies depending on where you live, work and experience.....

  17. Two job offers for new LPN

    Marshall1 replied to dgarney's topic in General Nursing

    If you don't need benefits or dependable hours then #1 would be the way to go as it would allow flexibility. If you need dependable hours and/or benefits than your only option is

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

  23. At my boiling point...you are NOT a Nurse...of ANY kind!!!!

    Marshall1 replied to nursehunnie's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    It's not only stupid for them to identify or mislead people on what their position is..it's dangerous. Anyone who acts like they know it all usually ends up causing the most

  24. I wasn't hired because I failed the personality test???

    Marshall1 replied to loveishope's topic in General Nursing

    Those tests are what non-healthcare management came up with...they are misleading and keep a lot of good/great healthcare workers out of jobs and put a lot of not good/lousy healthcare workers into...

  25. Not hired if you smoke?

    Marshall1 replied to havehope's topic in General Nursing
