  1. Recovering after bullying

    dance4life replied to SombraRN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Not yet. But, I did read somewhere that work place bullying will be something that you will be able to sue for in the future. Or, something they are "looking" into because, it really isn't harassment...

    dance4life replied to GCRN89's topic in Travel

    I would just check out Indeed, Career Builder, and Monster. You will find them or they will find you based on your experience. There are too many to name and too many of us had different experiences...

    dance4life replied to HarleyNrs's topic in Travel

    dance4life replied to BARNgirl's topic in Travel

  9. Anyone been to Montefiore in Bronx, Ny?

    dance4life replied to HarleyNrs's topic in Travel

  10. Anyone been to Montefiore in Bronx, Ny?

    dance4life replied to HarleyNrs's topic in Travel

  13. ADN RN....do i have a chance at finding a job?

    dance4life replied to neurogirl77's topic in Travel

    Me too! I have worked at several facilities that people say they only hire BSN. I think it totally depends on your experience and their need. Some places I have been asked to stay on as permanent. I...

    dance4life replied to liser79's topic in Travel

  16. Disappointed with travel agencies...

    dance4life replied to ukjenn231's topic in Travel

    dance4life replied to ukjenn231's topic in Travel

    dance4life replied to SticU <3's topic in Travel

    Most of the agencies that staff the East Coast are not in the East Coast. Well, sometimes. But, I would try Indeed.com for the specific location you are looking for. Many travel agencies post in...

    dance4life replied to WhatItTakes1290's topic in Travel

    dance4life replied to sundaebest's topic in California Nursing
