  1. Age-old question... Should I leave the hospital for home care?

    foggnm replied to babynurse73's topic in Home Health

    I just started at a home health agency and still do per diem in the hospital (ER, ICU). I'll tell you in a month what I think. People at the hospital are always like 'why would you want to do that'...

  2. Need a HH daily agenda

    foggnm posted a topic in Home Health

  4. Need a HH daily agenda

    foggnm replied to foggnm's topic in Home Health

    Actually, I spent about an hour last night and 1/2 hour this morning reading through previous posts. So I wasn't asking out of laziness. And there's a point at which many forum readers will say "this...

  7. My Struggle as a nurse

    foggnm replied to natiagagua25's topic in General Nursing

  9. Hard and Soft Skills

    foggnm replied to TheCommuter's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    That makes sense to me why they hire people for good attitudes. I'm sure they also consider skills. But I've worked with a lot of different people at the hospital and know that being able to get along...

  10. i HATE my job. Does anyone else feel the same?

    foggnm replied to Jenni811's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I am so thankful for allnurses and posts like this. I think these sentiments are really shared by the majority of inpatient nurses. I often suggest to younger nursing or pre-nursing students (with...

  11. Burned out from floor nursing, need advice, please..

    foggnm replied to frazzled2012's topic in General Nursing

    foggnm replied to mqnurse36's topic in First Year After Licensure

    How one is schedule for 12 hour shifts can make a big difference in terms of your satisfaction. I personally don't like working 3 in a row. So I try to do two in a row, then one off, then have 3 days...
