    Bubbles replied to Cathyd241's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    That's really

  2. Any home care, hospice, rehab, or community health nurses.. please help. :)

    Bubbles replied to klmoyer's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    According to your post your assignment is to interview a nurse. Posting questions on this site is not interviewing. You will find a lot more helpful information by following your instructor's...

  3. Pain medicine and bone mets

    Bubbles replied to esrun00's topic in Hospice, Palliative

    Woogy. Absolutely! It's been a long time since I worked in hospitals, but the good, secure in themselves physicians always listened to the nurses. We were their eyes and ears so they respected our...

  4. Willing to move across country, help?

    Bubbles replied to hardkorthree's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Actually you would and should mind being paid only $15.00 an hour as an RN! Sounds like you are a hard worker and you don't want to sound desperate. Lots of nurses are having a hard time finding...

  5. Should I accept?

    Bubbles replied to LetsgoHawks's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I don't understand if you are being offered a position that you and employer have not discussed specifics such as pay and hours. If it were me I would want more information. You need to ask about...

  6. I was fired by an MA at orthopedic clinic

    Bubbles replied to srmann's topic in General Nursing

    A medical assistant calling herself a nurse is illegal in Arizona. Only RNs and LPNs can legally be called nurses. To call a medical assistant a nurse is misleading to the public and harmful to the...

  7. Where do I find CM jobs?

    Bubbles replied to Joe NightingMale's topic in Case Management

    Hospice firms have RN case

  10. I'm out

    Bubbles replied to goldberryRN's topic in Hospice, Palliative

    I hear you goldberryRN! Hospice is such a wonderful program so it is a darn shame when somehow it is thought that personnel can continue to function in the conditions you describe. I wish you

  11. Hospice...hostile and toxic work environment!

    Bubbles replied to RENnurse4/17's topic in Hospice, Palliative

    Sounds like the problem is that your employer is not providing you with a cell phone or device like a Blackberry so you have to use your own private cell phone. This is dangerous for your patients...

  12. Update on fraudulent visits

    Bubbles replied to salvadordolly's topic in Home Health

    Thanks for the update and thanks for all your hard work. That 'nurse' needs to lose her license and be sent to prison. Hopefully she never cares for another patient! Please let us know what happens...

  13. Fraudulent visits - yes I brought it up!

    Bubbles replied to salvadordolly's topic in Home Health

    So the question remains what do we do when we know there is Medicare fraud? The situation as described does not seem to even need to be proved given that actually doing that number of visits is not...

  14. Dear Cheaters

    Bubbles replied to RN9742's topic in General Students

    I was never aware of any of my classmates cheating in nursing school, but it seems we are living in a different world where ethics are ignored. Hopefully I am wrong, but that is how it feels to me....

  15. Do nurses get unemployment benefits?

    Bubbles replied to shuubie's topic in General Nursing

    Arizona has a one week waiting period and pays very low unemployment benefits. Only one state pays less. But when one is laid off every little bit

  16. Observation of the day

    Bubbles replied to R!XTER's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Sounds like you had some demanding patients. I know what you mean, but logically this is probably an example of a 'glittering generality' and should be avoided. Better not to put people in

  17. Anyone else dealing with this?

    Bubbles replied to Nurseamanda00's topic in Rehabilitation

    It is totally inconsiderate and unprofessional. Also, I am thinking this practise is illegal. If you are scheduled to work and they send you home they should be paying you for a half day. It appears...

  18. HELP pls.. advice anyone

    Bubbles replied to stephanie11's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I agree with the two previous comments. Even though we nurses are usually not English majors like Garrison Keilor it is really difficult to read such poorly written comments. That said, traveling...

    Bubbles replied to julz68's topic in General Nursing

    Why do you say pee instead of

  20. Couldn't believe he did this...

    Bubbles replied to Elizabeth Renee's topic in General Nursing

    This whole situation is just so wrong on so many levels! This obviously conscientious employee is doing her best and being paid nearly nothing for her efforts while the other sits on his butt. The...

  21. Couldn't believe he did this...

    Bubbles replied to Elizabeth Renee's topic in General Nursing

    Guttercat, In assisted living facilities the medications are given by med techs which have less training than CNAs. Assisted living facilities can be small home like facilities or much larger. In the...

  22. What is the average pay scale for COTA's in your state & are you happy?

    Bubbles replied to layla100's topic in Occupational Health

    Occupational health nursing is totally different from occupational or physical therapy. Occupational health nursing involves Registered Nurses who provide nursing care to employees in industrial...

  23. Nursing School after Law School to attain a Risk Management position?

    Bubbles replied to MKWright's topic in Nursing Career

    Another criminal conviction? Only the RN part and hospital experience? Just feels right? How would you know? Better to stay with the

  24. Need Advice... Nurse stealing non-narcotic medication

    Bubbles replied to JSSCELI's topic in General Nursing
