for snf/ltc usually depends of the place starting is 18-21 home health 20-25 per visit and office staff home health or case coordinator 18-21 depends on experience adult day healthcare not sure maybe around 14-16 if asked how much you prefer then tell them ALF 16-18 depends of the place and experience

i dont think 16/hr is right, i think you should ask for 18 at least just to know your worth even if you're new grad. I am also a new grad but i dont accept job that's anything below 18/hr unless im super duper broke no money desperate for a job :)))

hello i think for ALF only lvns that are the no RNs. the DON is an lvn. hehe also i want to ask a question about the physical exam, did they ask you to do physical exam after they hire you or offered you the job.

Hello I needed to ask this question. I had a job interview of lvn position at a ADHC and the interview was very quick. After she explained to me the duties and what is needed to be done she asked if i would be interested in and i said yes. She said she has one more to interview and that she will call me on friday if i got the job to do some paperworks but first she needs to interview that one person. Do you think i will get the call on friday which is tmrw? I been cancelling all of my interviews bc i wanted to wait for the call bc i really want to work there. So what do you think? Will they call or will they not if they say they will call on friday and finish interviewing

Hey so where do you work? My first nursing job was at skilled nursing and i quit after two weeks bc i was so overwhelmed only have 7days OR and they put in the floor by myself before OR ended. You still work at ltc?

Before I went. I kept asking them if it was ok and i couldnt say no i kept asking if they were sure and so i thought they lvns dc so they have done this before.

Well i knew that DC is not in lvns scope. I knew that. My agency is really weird they said that it was ok for lvns to dc and they made sure and it depends with the patien dx and insurance and since pt is non medicare they made their lvns do dc. I didnt know what to do when they give it to me and idk why i said yes

My agency is weird. All of their lvns does dc because it depends on the patient dx and insurance thats how agency does and i agree iv never heard lvn does dc i had no choice i didnt kmow what to do i didnt if i should have not taken it
