    rn1965 replied to Psickal09's topic in Nurses Recovery

    rn1965 replied to IN Pysche Nurse's topic in Nurses Recovery

    rn1965 replied to AesthesiaSeeker's topic in Nurses Recovery

  6. Was Covid-19 Here Already?

    rn1965 replied to BSNbound21's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I wondered myself about this. I know this is SUPER early, but, in September, I started running a fever, out of the blue. The only other symptoms were extreme exhaustion and body aches. It would go...

  7. Finally able to practice nursing. Jobs???

    rn1965 replied to Psickal09's topic in Nurses Recovery

  9. Finally able to practice nursing. Jobs???

    rn1965 replied to Psickal09's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I am in the same boat. I have applied to no less than 100 places. Even had an offer but my CM said no go. I understand her reasoning. I am now trying to see if she will allow me to do home health,...

  11. 2nd Opinion Successful???

    rn1965 replied to MiRN07's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I would hope they would listed, but hope can be fleeting! That being said, was the the 2nd evaluation done by one of their approved doctors? If so, I would think they would take that into...

    rn1965 replied to SpankedInPittsburgh's topic in Nurses Recovery

    The only one I have heard of is the one in MI. I am not sure I know of any others. I did read about it a bit and man, those nurses were really getting the screws put to them in MI. I have followed...

    rn1965 replied to mississippiRN71's topic in Nurses Recovery

    That and one of the options they are stating in TX is the possibility of extending the monitoring agreements if we cannot

  15. U/A's/ COVID-19

    rn1965 replied to mississippiRN71's topic in Nurses Recovery

    It for sure is scary. Texas is kind of playing it by ear. Right now, we are still expected to test, but they have stated they may do more extensive testing when its all over. I cannot afford all...

  16. TPAPN and COVID 19

    rn1965 replied to RevelationDark's topic in Nurses Recovery

    rn1965 replied to TiredNurse1005's topic in Nurses Recovery

  21. PNAP Question

    rn1965 replied to SpankedInPittsburgh's topic in Nurses Recovery

    The entire program is run via computers, no? Why should it take longer for them to click a button? Your case manager can see you have complied, she/he should just be stopping the monitoring and...

  22. Leaving IPN?

    rn1965 replied to Bayleaf's topic in Nurses Recovery

    IF you want to remain in healthcare, do not drop out. They will come after your LPN license. Do the eval (And I know it is a ridiculous amount of money) and take the hit and keep moving on. They...
