The training for prn would fall during my full time hours. I'm thinking of taking full time nd doing the prn later when I can take time off for orientation etc

Ok I have a situation I found myself in. I was offered a full time position as a care coordinator at a nearby hospital. It's straight days 7-330. Pay is 29.50. No nights weekends or holidays. Sitting at a desk and no patient care. The other position I am interested in is through a staffing agency that is operated through the hospital system. It's their own staffing agency. Pay starts at 37.60 an hour and goes to 41 an hour if you work at least 56 hours in 2 weeks. You can make your own schedule and float throughout the whole system at all ED's. You get retirement, but no medical/dental (which isn't a big deal. I can get my own. The only thing with the PRN is that you CAN be canceled. However people that I know that do it said they've never been canceled. Taking opinions!!!

Lol I didn't have a choice. I work in the er and we have no other in network facility (and it was midnight). Looking back, they had me sign in so that they could keep me there to test me. I stupidly thought they cared and wanted me to talk to someone. I had already been a patient for 2 hours when they came in to do a drug test for work. I completely understand why they did it. I just was told by a friend that once I was a patient, I was no longer an employee on the clock. furthermore, HR had my information that I gave during my triage. But that's a different matter completely.

Hi! I work in a busy level 1 trauma center's er. A couple weeks ago due to the stress in my life I had a meltdown at work(I cried). I ended up signing in as a patient in to my er to talk to a psychiatrist. As a patient I got drug tested three times. The first time was their standard test. The second time was because the standard test came back negative and since I had told my doctor I took klonopin to sleep as needed (it's prescribed) she thought I had used someone else's urine. Meanwhile, during the second test, she made another one of my coworkers watch me pee. First of all is that legal? We never do that for our regular patients. Ever. The third time was an employer drug screen. Can they drug screen you when you've already signed in voluntarily as a patient? All 3 came back negative so while it's not a big deal, I still have my job...I'm just wondering.
