   PPediRN replied to michaellorenzo's topic in Home Health

   Wow! So, home health is paying LESS today than it was 15 years ago? What a slap in the face. You deserve better. Maybe try a rehab hospital. Pay is much better but it's hard

3. Home Health - Is it worth the pay?

   PPediRN replied to michaellorenzo's topic in Home Health

   Don't do it. I worked in home health for years. Big waste of time & money. NEVER again! You'll be charting at home, tearing up your car, & putting in more than 8 hours every day for a few...

12. Weird Interview

    PPediRN posted a topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Has anyone had an interview that was less than 10 minutes long? She only asked me 3 questions. First, tell me about yourself. Then she asked which shift I prefer and wanted to know my salary...

    PPediRN replied to brownm27's topic in General Nursing
