  1. Asking a higher rate

    Back in the day travel nurses made bank in CA. Now they barely make what perm staff make. But it is
  2. Asking a higher rate

    I don't necessarily care about hourly rate. I'm talking total package with all tax free incentives. If its less than I can make as a perm staff on the same floor I'm not doing it. I just got an offer...
  3. Asking a higher rate

    No it's not! I'm going through the same thing. I told my company nevermind. I would find a perm position in CA because I refuse to be a traveler and make less than perm staff. I swear it's like...
  4. Travel nursing vs. Strike nursing

    But I have worked at hospitals with nurses actively trying to organize. Of course management doesnt like that so they force perm staff out. That's when they hire a ton of travelers to fill the need....
  5. Travel nursing vs. Strike nursing

    Dont hate the player hate the game. Now I have thought about it. But I could never cross the picket line. But sometimes I feel that traveling isn't that much different. We often go to short staffed...

    Lol! Google Mary O Mundinger! She def has a vested interest in being pro
  7. I HATE Nurse Practitioners

    A systematic review of the impact of nurse practitioners on cost, quality of care, satisfaction and wait times in the emergency department | Canadian Journal of Emergency Medicine I found this article...
  8. I HATE Nurse Practitioners

    You are partially right. They are not many negative NP research articles. Hmmm I wonder why? lol maybe certain groups have a vested interested in only publishing research that paints NP as sunshine...
  9. I HATE Nurse Practitioners

    MMS: Error This is the reason why I originally stated to "think twice" about going the NP route. Because MD and NP greatly differ in the their opinions of the role of NP in practice. It's not that...
  10. I HATE Nurse Practitioners

    Exactly! MD and NP are two totally different things. So why do you feel the need to post articles that prove NP's have similar or better outcomes as MD only? Because if you want to get technical its...
  11. I HATE Nurse Practitioners

    Lol I will post some articles. I would like to see your articles as well including all acknowledgements conflicts of interests and funding sources
  12. I HATE Nurse Practitioners

    I think part of the problem is that NP always try to compare themselves to MD. As if they are trying to prove themselves. And its not really even about that. But the powers that be have decided MD NP...
  13. I HATE Nurse Practitioners

    I do read research articles. I don't really feel it's necessary to post my set of research because you can just counter with your own. If you really want to go there I am more than willing to do so....
  14. I HATE Nurse Practitioners

    Lol but can a surgeon leave and let the PA
  15. I HATE Nurse Practitioners

    That's the thing about "evidence". You can have your set of research to prove your point. And I can have my own set of research that totally contradicts yours. So who is right? Lol! I have to ask...

    https://aaspa.com/page.asp?tid=95&name=The-Surgical-PA&navid=34 maybe this will
  17. I HATE Nurse Practitioners

    How is it backwards thinking to want a healthcare system with more MD's than NP/PA? Would you want your unit run with 1 RN and 10 CNA's? Its the same concept. Look you can presented all the "evidence"...
  18. I HATE Nurse Practitioners

    Nope that's how it is in my state. It's like how doctors can train medical assistants to perform tasks that nurses normally do. Is there really a difference between cheap and cost effective??? I mean...
  19. I HATE Nurse Practitioners

    It's doesnt have to be explicitly stated. MD can allow PA to perform any procedure. As long as it is agreed upon before
  20. I HATE Nurse Practitioners

    It's very subjective and all depends on supervising MD. Not uncommon for MD to open do major part then bounce! Sometimes MD won't even open. It varies greatly. I do have to say though. All the...

  22. I HATE Nurse Practitioners

    I don't have to go to Tx to see bad healthcare. I see that in my own back yard. My hometown where I was born and raised. You really think Tx is the only state with PCP shortage??? Open up your eyes....
  23. I HATE Nurse Practitioners

    Side note: where do you work that they don't go the cheapest route? You must not work in bedside nursing where they intentionally short staff units. Just to save a quick
  24. I HATE Nurse Practitioners

    Lol I created my own screen name. I am self aware enough to realize I'm a lil cray cray. I've always been a lil off my rocker and that's ok with me. I see nothing wrong with being different. Being a...
  25. I HATE Nurse Practitioners

    There are 10,000 reasons not to go the MD route. But there is alot of advertising propaganda. I cant help but to think that influences the decisions students make. Just logging into all nurse I got...
