  4. Home health nurse working as a maid?

    amoLucia replied to mzsuccess's topic in Home Health

    WHOA!! Not good! Like PP subee asks, 'who's paying for her care'? Put your concerns in writing to your agency manager or owner. You have no business doing care for anyone other than your pt and it...

  6. I need advice on how to quit my job

    amoLucia replied to sloaneeee's topic in Nursing Career

    ^^^^^^This! It's NEVER a good thing to stick it to any employer. As they say 'what goes around, comes around'. Close out your personnel file in an adult professional manner. Just KISS it. That is Keep...

    kbrn - well

  13. Pharmacists admitted to BSN Program

    amoLucia replied to CYNTO Y's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    to TDB - TY for your informative post. I suspect that for many job-seeking new pharmacists, they may be in the same straits as many a new grad nurse. All the glorified, most desirous positions out...

    amoLucia replied to stormymemphisORC's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Wouldn't it be nice if the Feds were to delay repayment of student loans for HCW who're working thru C19? I heard some speaker commenting about programs for delaying mortgage pay'ts and insurance...

  19. Trach suctioning without gloves??

    amoLucia replied to HopefulRN7's topic in Home Health

    Am reading this late - BIGGER pet peeve occurred when the collection canister was NOT emptied after EACH use (DON'T start me about end of shift!). Will also reinforce PP nurseI56's comment that...

  20. Being asked to send documentation 6 months after leaving

    amoLucia replied to Annieonomous22's topic in Home Health

    I agree. Something else might be going on. To me, homecare always seemed to be extremely nebulous, ambiguous and unprotected when it came down to 'he said, she said' employee issues. If you feel...

  21. Student loans

    amoLucia replied to stormymemphisORC's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Considering that it's a FEDERAL loan, could the feds go after income tax returns? Would it knock an applicant out of job opp'tys in any fed institutions, like a VA hosp or NH or corrections? It...

    amoLucia replied to speedynurse's topic in Health, Stress Management

  24. Do you think Covid patients should arrange to be cremated instead of buried?

    amoLucia replied to Alnitak7's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Who will be bearing the costs for the unexpected deaths' burial arrangements? Why not allow cremations free for families, and for undertakers allow some reimbursement from gov't benefits? I would...
