I have a patient with the same assessment findings today. We concluded gas.

I would look into Northwestern, UIC, U of C, and Rush

Oh and I moved to Noble Square (just south of Wicker Park) and I love it. The Chicago Ave. bus is only a few minutes from my apartment and drops me off right at the door at work. The area is safe, affordable, free neighborhood parking (although you t...

Hey! I'm a postpartum RN currently on a travel contract in Chicago. My recommendation would be to look into a big company like Cross Country (I'm currently with them) and see if they have anything here. Supplemental Healthcare had a lot of Chicago co...

Hello all! Got my first contract secured and start in a few weeks. I plan to drive there and it will be a 2-day drive. What is a safe solution for leaving my car full of stuff somewhere overnight? If I stay at a hotel and valet it, will they keep an ...

I solved my own problem. Found an Airbnb with a garage they agreed to let me use! Yall are some brave folks!

From the other point of view: Although I personally would feel embarrassed to show up 20 minutes late to report at 0705 and would be apologizing profusely if I did, I consistently clock in to work a little on the late side- somewhere between 6:44 and...

When my "work besties" are working the same shift and floor with me, we take lunch together and talk. I have a few more acquaintances I'll talk to now and then. Most of my other coworkers annoy me to no end so either we don't talk if we are in the lu...

I would recommend filing your own incident report in your own words. Explain everything just as you did to us. Do it sooner rather than later and be as thorough as possible.

I work for the main campus and I can definitely tell you HR is slooooow with all things hiring-related. I referred an RN from Hermann who applied on my unit in March or April and her start date is August 3rd. Don't lose hope! The whole hospital seems...

Good luck everyone!! That is where I graduated from and it's a great school!

What I took from this was him meaning that if someone brings positive energy it can create a happier work environment...?

I have been doing my research and have come to the conclusion that I do not qualify for a tax home/ tax free stipends. However, I cannot find any info on what a pay package looks like without a tax home. Any info yall have would be much appreciated! ...

I actually have one more question. I have about $5,000 worth of furniture and TV's which I had planned to sell all of before moving. However, my parents recently bought a second home and moved most of their stuff to the new house- but plan to keep bo...

Thanks!

Okay long story short- I will need to move from Chicago to Seattle in either mid-December or mid-February between assignments. I have never lived outside of Texas and am not experienced with wintery roads. Will that drive be do-able (safely) during e...

I've only gotten a quote from one agency so far. Are my pay expectations realistic?

Another question- would paying my parent's monthly utility bill qualify me for being able to declare it as a tax home? That was suggested to me by another traveler but I'm not sure if that's legal. I'm not trying to get audited but I'm also not tryin...

So the company I spoke to quoted (with a tax home)- $19/hr plus $2100/month for housing. $2100 per month is $14.58 per hour worked. So that means my total hourly pay if I don't have a tax home would be $33.58 before tax?! That sounds terribly low for...

I worked my first staff job in that facility and would not go back. They require PBDS and it was a hostile environment in terms of staff/ culture. It's one of those hospitals that is all about survey scores and reputation and are not very supportive ...

Thank you everyone for the wonderful advice! I have a lot to think about.
