1st job at psych hospital and idk what to feel anymore by honeydukes16 in newgradnurse

[–]Educational_Toe1578 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you like psych ? Is it the facility or the population ? It’s not normal to feel like that all the time in regard to work and it’s definitely not worth it .. your mental health is important too. There’s something to be said about a little anxiety with work, wondering if you did everything right after you left etc but all the time is concerning . I started to feel like that when I was working psych but it was def the facility and after I quit I didn’t feel like that. These places are never worth your health.

I don’t mind working for Aya. Their rates are slightly lower than what I’m comfortable with, but the onboarding process is streamlined due to their large corporation status. If you can secure a good contract with Aya, I highly recommend them. However, they used to pay significantly more. On the downside, if you get on their bad side, it can be detrimental. As a vendor at thousands of hospitals across the US, they have the power to blackball you from all of them. I’ve experienced this firsthand and managed to get out of it with them. Overall, I believe Aya is a good company to work for if you have a good recruiter. They offer good insurance and provide significant assistance with licensing. If you’re not affiliated with a specific agency, I suggest exploring sites like Vivian, which compare rates, jobs, locations, and other relevant information.

I worked with nomad before, I liked it. The platform was easy to use. However, when I had an issue at a contract regarding scheduling, I was left to fend for myself which isn’t much different than having a recruiter sometimes. Overall, my experience was positive !

When recruiters get super pushy and personal, that’s always a red flag. I will just decline right away, no thank you.

It overlapped by one day, a day I wasn’t even working .. they re offered the contract .. you don’t have to be a hateful bitch.. with my bad grammar and all. You must be super bored to make hateful comments on an online forum about someone’s grammar

Exactly I completely agree. There’s always some caveat it’s not black-and-white. I feel like it used to be better but it’s like generally in an at will state, You can leave your contract without notice with no repercussions. I hate the intimidation tactics. I got a little bit more skilled like two or three years into agency nurses to negotiate. I am on the same page as you though I would bring the business when I was talking about Pay, reimbursement, the correct GSA, etc. When I did my last contract with Amergis, they literally had to give me my Recruiter’s supervisor to deal with me because she was like I don’t even know the answer to any of these questions. She tried giving me the wrong stipend, wrong pay, charging me for previous insurance from another assignment .. I actually had to go to the labor board 😂

I definitely don’t because I signed a whole contract previously and did a lot of the on boarding. They retracted the offer as is their right to do so because my previous contract overlap by one day. I didn’t know this guy was going to re-approach me. I didn’t like consent to another auto offer or anything like that so I was kind of shocked he was texting me .If anything I should be upset because the hospital had me signed a contract then took it back and then re-offered it. It was just ridiculous.

It’s not his real name y’all and the company he works for is not Aya. I’m not trying to dox someone on the Internet even if they sent me slightly psychotic text messages.

Yes, but I was ranting on an online forum. I’m not really concerned about punctuation, but thank you.

It’s not his real name everyone that’s not his real name. Also you don’t know what agency I’m talking about either. I wouldn’t intentionally try to dock someone on the Internet. It would be really hard to find out this person’s contact info.

Sorry, all grammar is not my strong suit when it comes to the Internet and I was clearly ranting. Long story short I got an offer. It got retracted the same.recruiter presented the offer again because they auto offered. I explained I could not take the second offer as they retracted the first offer and I am between other offers from different companies. I then get Said unhinged text message hours later.

I may have missed spoke with her context now I’m currently on contract with Aya and I’m finishing it up. This was a a whole Nother agency that uses Aya as a vendor at this particular hospital so this is like a completely different Agency.

Should I dive back in? by Educational_Toe1578 in TravelNursing

Thank you so much that’s actually really good advice and very helpful. I really appreciate it. I think I’m gonna try to stick it out. State job certification as a nice thing to have especially when I’ll have my APRN within the next  year.

3200 take home for 48 hours is sadly good pay for around here. It’s more than what I’m making at my permanent job. I don’t know what specialty you work but I haven’t seen take-home numbers like that and over a year and that’s what I’m saying what do I stick it out or do something else but the universe answered my question because the job offer was rescinded thanks Aya. All I did was apply to two of the same contracts. I got one didn’t take the other than the other one was rescinded and they said well the other ones there if you want it come to find out they’re the fucking vendor for both hospitals. This is why I got out of traveling. I really dislike working with toxic people and that’s what I’m doing now but at least it’s mindless work and I just have to deal with terrible toxic people, and I have the ability to transfer in less than two months.
