  1. Big Decisions

    Marshall1 replied to scrubsrn24's topic in General Nursing

    The commute doesn't sound like a major issue for you it sounds like the actual work environment...I wouldn't want to be around negative people all day - it's stressful enough as it is...if you have...

  2. Does anyone ever get hired in the future?

    Marshall1 replied to Blackcat99's topic in Nursing Career

    Only once in over 20 yrs as a nurse has anyone who has said that to me called..and I think then it was basically because no one wanted the particular position that came open - including

  3. Accepted HH position but have heard nothing back..should I be concerned?

    Marshall1 posted a topic in Home Health

    I accepted a HH position a few weeks ago, went in and completed the new hire paperwork and background check information. It's been over a week now and I have heard NOTHING from anyone - and no...

  4. Accepted HH position but have heard nothing back..should I be concerned?

    Marshall1 replied to Marshall1's topic in Home Health

    I got a response...basically, they said some things were "overlooked" being put into the computer and I will start Monday. Interestingly, the person who returned my call, without me asking anything,...

  5. second degree nonu accelerated bsn program

    Marshall1 replied to melanyblame's topic in General Students

    Have either of you considered online programs for your BSN? Many accredited schools offer the BSN program and will schedule the clinical in your area when the time comes and you can be given credit...

  6. OWI and the job search....

    Marshall1 replied to grace86's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    I'm not familiar with the term OWI but I do know that a DUI - in and of itself - will not keep you from getting a job - a felony of some sort most likely would, but a misdemeanor and proof you...

  7. Did you hate your life in nursing school??

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

    I enjoyed nursing school for the most part BUT because of the class schedules, class work and clinicals I very little, if any, social life. I worked weekends and all my breaks. Like you, many of the...

    Marshall1 replied to beachyfe's topic in Ob/Gyn

  10. Thick skin

    Marshall1 replied to Chixie's topic in General Nursing

    Some nurse have a tendency to "eat their young" - as others on here have posted "it's not about you" - as you gain your experience and age - life lessons alone - will thicken the skin - what matters...

  11. Getting a Home Health job

    Marshall1 replied to LisaMR's topic in Home Health

    After not working for 17 years it may be tough to get into HH starting out..many times, at least where I live, they want a year or more of recent experience. I would suggest calling some of the...

    Marshall1 replied to Bme2's topic in Home Health

  13. MORAL DILEMA

    Marshall1 replied to TonyaM73's topic in General Nursing

    Your posted is not correct..I work hospice on a PRN basis and have had 2 family members who were on hospice..though both my family members were DNR's a patient does NOT have to be a DNR to be on...

  14. MORAL DILEMA

    Marshall1 replied to TonyaM73's topic in General Nursing

    Given the patients respiratory status, it's unlikely he will maintain normal o2 sats. Was he symptomatic? If he is alert and oriented and understands completely (and it's documented) what can happen...

  15. Failed! 4days before grad!

    Marshall1 replied to privatecarenurse's topic in General Students

    The only failure will be is if you don't go back! Someone I went to RN school with failed the boards but now is a very successful CRNA. Maybe the hospital will still allow you to work as a nursing...

    Marshall1 replied to MomRN0913's topic in General Nursing

  17. Brightstar home health care???

    Marshall1 replied to jommit52's topic in Home Health

    The Brightstar near where I live in Ga. just received some award for outstanding patient care from the survey people so at least in around here they are good. As far as the posts re: the questions...

  18. help...job decision

    Marshall1 replied to momswann's topic in General Nursing

    I'd be surprised if the hospice job pays as well as the hospital - usually - at least the area I live - they do not. BUT, hospice is/can be a very rewarding career and I personally have had hospice...

    Marshall1 posted a topic in Home Health

    I worked HH in the past...I had applied for a baylor weekend position (weekends plus one during the week) and got the position. I understand HH has changed a LOT in the past 10 years - I am organized...

  22. Becoming a Nurse with an Arrest Record then rehabilitation

    Marshall1 replied to DD214's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    I'd call your state board and ask them - explain all you have here - really don't think it will be an issue - I think the main things are felonies and abuses, long history of drug charges etc. Good...

    Marshall1 posted a topic in General Nursing

    I interviewed for a position for a 2nd job a week ago. Was told I would hear something in a few days - I didn't. I took the initiative and called as this position would work very well with my other...
