Is it the norm to not get paid for drive time when working for a home infusion company? The company I'm looking at pay mileage to and from a visit but not drive time. The clock starts at the beginning of the visit. This is a PRN p...

I'm seeing this more and more. I totally understand a patient/patient family wanting to protect themselves and/or their family from incompetence. Im pretty sure our hospital has a policy against this. However, people are sneaky, it's impo...

I'm confused by the amount of stretch need for each layer. Everywhere online seems to say something different regarding the application of these two multilayer compression dressings. My big questions are which layer does Profore Lite omit, the ...

Will you share your journey on here? Good luck!

Hi, I'm enrolled in the Cleveland clinic WOC program online with virtual clinicals. I was under the impression that virtual clinicals/practicum offered by Cleveland Clinic satisfies the WOCNB's direct patient clinic hours. However, ...

Hi, I’m moving to Baltimore soon and have been looking around at my options. Does anybody work in Baltimore and have any advice? I’m coming from an ICU/IMCU/Medsurg background and have recently been doing wound care. I a...

Hi, I was just curious. When you say a more flexible schedule, are you talking in contrast to your current schedule as PRN? What is your schedule like as a PRN home health nurse? I used to work “PRN” as an LVN and would take a ful...

Thanks for sharing your story. I’m glad you’re into it. May I ask if you would recommend first doing online Oasis training to someone making a move from the hospital to home health with no Oasis experience?

Are there agencies out there that don’t do Oasis paperwork? I’m aware of the bait and switch reality that exists in this business. The reason why I want to work part time and not full time is because I understand that full time means your l...

Howdy, I’ve been a nurse for 13 years, the last 3 of which were ICU. I’m burnt out. I worked as a home health nurse for a couple of years over a decade ago as an LVN. I absolutely loved it. (I’m an RN now). I’d like to make a move ba...

Would you start a dopamine drip?

I’m currently doing a contract in a COVID unit. I float PCU, ICU. After this contract I want to try something else. My big options are home health, wound care, or infusion. I’ve been a nurse for 13 years, I’ve done medsurg, LTAC, ...

I just watched some Youtube videos on how to get this set up. I’m assuming all crash cart monitors come with the 3 ecg lines.

Thanks, MunoRN. That makes a lot of sense. So with a rate sustained in the 40’s and even 30’s, your best intervention would be to grab the crash cart and try some transcutaneous pacing. How would one go about doing this? Feel free...

I'm sure this has been posted here before. I'm too computer illiterate to figure out how to post an article let alone search for one. I'm just wondering if anyone has any input on this systematic review and how you think it affects PPE policy i...

What's the rationale for this? To stop nurses spreading COVID among themselves?

Hey guys, I've been taking some time off and doing some travelling. Approx 13 months off now. I worked ICU as a new grad for a couple of years but have over 8 years experience as an LVN/LPN med/surg, LTAC, home health, SNF... Just wondering if I wa...

Because if we don't, he's going to set us on fire and let us burn for eternity? And, you're going to worship him for doing so. If one is attempting to ponder the affect of Coronavirus on the future of human society, such an undertaking is impossible...

I think ole DannyBoy really rustled some jimmies. Not hard to do around here ?

How much is a reasonable amount? How much is too much? What about some kind of pay scale that is dependent on experience, specialty, willingness to travel, or risk to one's life? How much should nurses who work on helicopters, like LifeFlight, make?...

We all get paid thanks to sickness...

I’ve worked all over, and this does not surprise me at all. As a side note, I have worked in a training hospital, and those young docs were extremely hands on and respectful. Nurses were seen as colleagues. Most places, though, are as described ...

You have to share if this true ?

I’m with you OP. Tampa, FL is offering $5k/week for ER nurses, as is Austin Texas; Jacksonville, FL, and so on. Thats $20k/month! We are so ****ed.
