1. What do you love/hate about home health nursing?

   tinybbynurse replied to JJsMama79's topic in Home Health

   I just started in HH about a month or so ago. I'm currently the DON, but until another RN is hired, I'm doing field nursing 2x week. Pros: Flexibility - you can run an errand in the middle...

3. Should I recertify this patient?

   tinybbynurse posted a topic in Home Health

   Fairly new to home health. Wondering if I should recertify this patient - as far as I know, there are no specific guidelines in place, it’s based on clinical judgement. However, I was told sometime...

7. let go from job

   tinybbynurse replied to tinybbynurse's topic in General Nursing

   @T-Bird78 thanks for sharing!! Look at that - what’s up with the weekend trend of letting people go from their jobs at the end of the day?! I’m sure you’ve come a long way since then. I...

   @Forest2 I totally hear you. I’m generally an easy going person and get along with everyone. A lot of people were buddy-buddy there though and would crack jokes with each other and have in depth...

    tinybbynurse replied to tinybbynurse's topic in General Nursing

    @Oldmahubbard thank you for your words as well!! It’s terrible that personal favor by one or two people plays a role in some nursing jobs. But I know this is just the way it is sometimes. I’m so...

    YES!! This is EXACTLY what I told my SO the other day! I was like... ya know...they could’ve just let me go in the morning or called me or something, so I could spend the day figuring out my next...

    tinybbynurse replied to tinybbynurse's topic in General Nursing

15. let go from job

    tinybbynurse posted a topic in General Nursing

    Anyone ever had that happen? I know many have. I never expected to have it happen to me. I started a new job not even 2 months ago, and when they let me go, they didn’t even give me specific reasons...
