i will suggest you not to go home health because it is hard labor work. you have to bent your back all the time when you give pt care beside their beds. in hospital you can adjust bed height so you do not have to bent, but at home, lots of time you h...

i have been RN for 3 years and never had HH experience but they still hired me and i proved i did really good. from their side, if you can prove by resume and from interview that you are a person who work hard, know what you are doing, care about you...

i believe it depends. but i never left a job within 6 months although i had better chance when i was there in 3 months, i could left but i choose to stay because i wanted to be professional in my record. the first job i had was terrible, turnover all...

your experience scared me. my maximum is 12.25 patient but they have to pay me for two days work this day, i do not work for free. so, find a new job, and get your RN.

depends on pt situation, doctor order with your judgement. if pt just out of hospital, at least i will do twice a week for 3 weeks if they seems not all stable, maybe 3 times per week for 3 weeks if doctor prove that. if they have wound care definite...

Ready to leave this home health agency. new job wants me to start next Monday. i gave reassign last Tuesday and 2 weeks will last to next Tuesday. i have enough BTO to cover the whole week. so i agree to work this week and use BTO to cover rest of da...

my suggestion for LPN friends is always that getting your RN asap. the hh i worked, they hired two LPN but only for office work. one as scheduler and one for admission and other paperwork. both of them hired later than me and quit way before me.

i do not so understand DON position. but seems like in the place i worked, office position filled up fast by people already in this company. before i got hired, 5 field nurses left together either go office or resigned. also every time office positio...

before i came here, i thought my hh experience is tough enough, now seems like i was in a good one. 29 per week. one weekend on call per month plus 3 week days. week days 20 buck even no call; weekend 100 bucks on saturday and sunday even no call. i ...

thank you very much, all you guys.

thanks. let us see. I have my tool box return on Monday since they said I have to bring everything back to get my pay check. hopefully they will leave me alone. the girl got hired with me (which we are friend now) quit during orientation. she made a ...

you are the mam. 7 to 12 pts. i did take 7 at night when i just started as rockie. i may not even survive in your hospital. hopefully it is something like windfield, which might happen to be true.

i been working 4 years, med-surg, cardiac, float pull, hh, different hospitals, i just feel like some places i would not want to work no matter how much they pay. they do not care and do not know what they are doing. one nurse round all 7 pts hourly ...

you talk about the right way of hh. but how many can really help prevent readmission? how many has experienced nurses with good attitude to really want to protect their patients. at least as i know, this area readmission rate is still sky high. so wh...

i just made decision after work for 8 months. i saw most experienced RNs either left or upgrade to office jobs. field nurses are poor. clinic conference per week, new hire meeting per two week and whenever they want to, manditory meeting per two week...

be careful. my agency made us sign something said after leave this company, can not go to other hh in one year and can not take pts away and some BS like that. and i believe they will try to get you if they can.

1 jackson mississippi 2 28dollar per hour, 6 pts daily required; ROC as 2.5 pts; SOC as 3 pts. 3 no benefit but maybe few hours BTO every 2 weeks. 0. 35 dollar per mile by google map shortest distance; 4 on call 6 days per week including one weekend....

i worked hh for 8 month and just quit. never heard travel time pay. we have to 6 pts daily for apply 8 hours salary. if not meet, company not pay 8 hours per day and will call you to talk. they have estimate every 2 weeks. so for me, travel time is w...

i worked hh for 8 month and quit now. no valuable experience, my new job do not even need their references. patients loves and cry for leave which are only reason keep me there. charting is complicated, duplicated, time consuming and time wasting. no...
