    Comparable pay to NY??

    mc3 replied to VCRN84's topic in Florida Nursing

    I'm from New England. Moved here in 2005 thinking the low pay would be OK because the cost of living is "so much less". In some areas, the cost of living is lower - like no state income tax - BUT...

    mc3 replied to KateyBug's topic in Private Duty

    I find it difficult to believe that you had medical training of some sort but do not know the answer to simple, basic care questions. You do not appear to be a nurse, or have any medical background...

    Question for Florida School Nurses

    mc3 replied to AutumnDraidean's topic in School

    I could be wrong, but I think you have to go through the Health Department of the county the child lives in.

    Keeping my patient's dignity intact? Please help me!! (long but urgent)

    mc3 replied to KateyBug's topic in Private Duty

    Nauseous vs Nauseated (another grammar lesson)

    I don't know why, but using "disrespected" instead of "disrespectful" absolutely drives me nuts! "He was disrespecting me" sounds so, I don't know, wrong to me. I think it should be "He was...
