I only worked hospice one on one care... so no HH experience. Some are pretty flexible, and will teach also. They taught me the notes and what they expected. Good luck!
Hello all! I was wondering how many of the home health LPN's out there have had problems getting paid on time? Not all but one place I work for consistently pays me late, 2-3 weeks late sometimes! It...

I can't speak for being a MA, but I like being an LPN. There are a billion home health agencies where I live, and I like HH nursing because I can create my own schedule, and do short patient visits,...

Hello! Does anyone know of how I can find private tutors for LPN's who want to become RN's? I want to hire a private tutor to help me but its tricky because my school, Broward College does things a...

Hello all! I love this group and learn a lot here! I am new to the agency thing. I have never worked for one, but I have plenty of experience in hospice, (in home patients mostly), and some sub-acute...
A lot of agencies I have been to in person have the old fashioned paper applications. I am resorting to pounding the pavement the old-fashioned way. I has worked in my past. I think so many of...
Hi all! I was fired from my job a while ago, and I am still looking for a job. I have almost 5 years experience. BTW I never had anything happen with my licence, did drugs, or committed any crime....
@ JoAnna78, I feel you. It is a struggle enough without being fired. Have you tried agencies? There are a billion HH agencies at least down here. I had one that told me to take my references with...
wow! that is a lot! Mine should be around $9,000 when all is said and done LPN-RN. I am factoring in all costs for books, and nursing supplies. Community college, its a great school if you can make...
