    That'll teach him to miss
  3. Hi! I'm getting myself ready to apply! April 1st is the deadline. I just left my job as an HIV care management nurse, and I'm hoping to be able to get into the condensed plan of study. I can't afford...
  4. I'm just... I don't know.

    All I can say is thank you for all of this support. It really helped me get through today. Without crying! I was able to shut another nurse down when she started to lecture me in front of the ID doc...
  5. Miserable at work

    I hear you. I'm working a job I loved at first but hate now. Not LTC but chronic case management with difficult coworkers. Terrified of the hospital but couldn't get hired anyway with no acute care...
  6. I'm just... I don't know.

    Thanks. In my area, all of the state stuff is contracted through non profits... Including the place I am at now. I'm also looking for something inside the parent organization. There's just not a lot...

  10. I'm just... I don't know.

    Right out of nursing school I was recruited by the clinic I did a senior practicum in. It's a medical case management job and for the most part it's been good. The personalities are a little tricky...
  11. I'm in this same boat... But two years later. My public health rotation in nursing school was an HIV clinic. I enjoyed it, and they recruited me like crazy... It was my first nursing job. Very few...
  12. Question about equal pay for equal work...

    It's not illlegal. Currently equal pay based on gender is under debate (again) in congress. Plus, if the employer says "$25 is what he demanded and we're short of nurses," then it's not...
  13. WSU Tri-cities or Yakima students?

    I don't know about Tri-cities, but the Yakima simulation lab is grossly understaffed and the equipment is not all that up to date. The staff they do have is smart, helpful and wonderful, there just...
