  1. For anyone considering a remote - work from home position that does not require direct patient care feel free to message me or ask me questions here. For a VERY long time I have wanted out of...
  2. For my particular job yes, I had to get a compact license but also had to apply for a single state license in another state that doesn't recognize compact licensure. It all depends on the position...
  3. I had an interview recently with IRC. I have been ghosted by the recruiter but am unclear why as it sounded very much like an offer was forthcoming. Is this normal for this company? I am disappointed...

  10. I took a pretty large paycut too but like you said, 100% worth it. can afford basics which is enough for me. I'd rather have my time, low stress than a higher paying job that isn't a good fit or is...
  11. Interesting as I've seen the opposite..younger nurses bullying the older, more seasoned nurses. Guess its based out of jealously - but whatever the reason - it's not a good professional look for the...
  12. Big issues at work

    First, there are plenty of other places that would hire you. As far as the resident, he has the right to refuse care from you or anyone else. It seems the reasonable thing would be to have...
  13. As others have said, if required by your job you must be legally compenstated, if they aren't going to pay you, politely refuse the training and give them a copy of the law. They are just being
  14. Could I get into trouble for this?

    Wouldn't give it another thought but my unsolitied advice is keep what you do for a living and where you work and live off the grid. Lots of nuts out there these days - your time is better spent not...
  15. I'm an after hours on call nurse coordinator for a company that provides private care in homes (not a home health agency). I handle issues if an employee is injured, questions a client may have about...

    There are many good
  21. Double standards b/w nurses and police officers

    Police officers in all states are POST certified. Tests are given in addition to training. They have to go through an academy - varies in length by state. MANY officers do have college educations -...

    Every police dept does not have a union. Maybe in the state you live in but not
  23. Should I stay or should I go?

    My only advice is this..If you don't want to be a charge nurse or move into management then don't do it. Even if someone else thinks/says/believes you are charge or management material - if it doesn't...
  24. How Much More Can Nurses Take?

    Soft on crime politics, employers more concerned with patients rights than staff safety and respect..its no surprise the healthcare crisis is at a tipping point and why a high percentage of nurses...
  25. This is why good employees leave jobs. Employees are always expected to follow the rules/policies/procedures (understandably) yet often times the C Suite folks don't think the same...
