  1. Nurses Rally for Health Care Funding

    Not sure what Medicaid/Medicare has to do with a welfare state. Not everyone who uses that insurance is on welfare. Why do people assume this? Furthermore, people who are low income work hard too or maybe cannot find a job. When you get sick how do y...
  2. They have been doing this lately. As well as IV certified. Sorry, but I haven't even been able to find a job. I let my ACLS go because I couldn't afford it without working. Now I am facing the fact that I can't even afford the BLS. Next, I will not b...
  3. Nurses Rally for Health Care Funding

    Wow, but the article is mostly talking about the Medicaid/Medicaid cuts. It would affect everyone as a whole regardless what the Union thinks of it or not. The article only mentions the Union briefly. The hospitals rely on these funds? This affects ...
  4. Nurses Rally for Health Care Funding

    Thank you for posting this.
  5. Experience at UMass Memorial Medical Center

    This is terrible. They do have listings, but I believe I did see postings this week too on Indeed. My friend works here but she told me about the happenings there two years ago with staffing. Nothing new in any Worcester hospital. It is sad really an...
  6. Not making it in Massachusetts

    Good luck. Trust me I have tried that already.
  7. No jobs...Seriously reconsider nursing school

    This! lmao! Anywoo, I am an experienced nurse and let me tell you one year for me looking all over the country. I AM NOT LYING AND I AM NOT GOING TO SUGAR COAT IT FOR YA. So I can relate to everyone who is feeling like well you know. But, don't giv...
  8. Not making it in Massachusetts

    I just noticed something, that the paper was filled with one half a page of jobs. I don't live in Boston though, not sure how the papers are out there. This is not so good for anyone in the workforce. Hope you are doing okay.
  9. are nurses satisfied?

    lmao @ autopilot I never thought of it that way!
  10. Am I'm too serious to be a RN?

    I agree, plus it makes a happy medium.
  11. Not making it in Massachusetts

    Oh yeah I didn't even mention those. I only heard about them when Mass General did some lay offs and it was is the newspaper. Besides the sunny states are definately hiring. Hey maybe no snow for you!
  12. Not making it in Massachusetts

    I have been in this situation since '08. I only have 6 years myself. New Grads are definitely having a hard time as well. I don't know how to get in either. I can get into a place that has a bad Medicare rating, poor management, and risk my license. ...
  13. ADN or BSN...how much does it really matter?

    On this note, don't some hospitals offer programs for nurses to get their BSN and they pay for it? Again this was like maybe 3 or 4 years ago and of course the economy has hit hard.
  14. ADN or BSN...how much does it really matter?

    There is an article that an ADN program is getting shut down. Which is another reason to consider. https://allnurses.com/nursing-news/community-college-closes-566179.html Including what everyone mentioned above. Myself I started ADN. I always wante...
  15. Lots of young people on disability?

    Yeah I am not doubting any nurses saying you guys are mean. Every state is different and we all learn from each other. It is good to know these things. Oh, you will get it with the threads... he he...
  16. Lots of young people on disability?

    They have a card here so they can't sell it for cash. They don't use paper anymore. Unless they shop with them, stand in line and put their pin number in. Which I mean really they would really have to be desperate for this. I would be quite frustrat...
  17. Lots of young people on disability?

    You can't unless you are a physician. That is the thing the workers have nothing to do with it, the doctors do. That is where the problem is.
  18. Lots of young people on disability?

    Masshealth you do not need to be on Welfare. So that is incorrect. They also have CommonwealthCare which will also give the patient a MassHealth card. This card is for someone who makes too much money for MassHealth. Instead of getting it from their...
  19. Lots of young people on disability?

    They are suppose to start drug testing people. But, I am not sure if that was a rumor. That would weed some out for sure. Get them some help they need. Well hopefully.
  20. Lots of young people on disability?

    McDonald's hiring does not cover all the jobs lost in the economy. LOL big picture here. They are going to hire a Bank Executive or Nurse. Yeah okay. Your income does not need to be that low. I mean what is low? At least not the state I live in. We ...
  21. Lots of young people on disability?

    Y Um, you can get Medicaid, Foodstamps, WIC, etc. when you work. I do know that in some instances they have Welfare to Work programs where someone does work and get Welfare. It goes by your income. You can get a Smartphone for free on many websites....
  22. Lots of young people on disability?

    I have heard enough. Thank you.
  23. Lots of young people on disability?

    Why not go to MIT or Harvard? Why be proud of a simple check that in most cases won't even support you living in this economy? Is not that what makes them a little off? How do you know they are not delusional? Still no answer where is the income on ...
  24. ObamaCare/Health Reform Law Blamed for Nursing Strikes

    It seems it was already starting to become this way before Obama came into office though and you are right though it is getting worse. At least that is what I have noticed. Not sure around where anyone else is located.
