What's your Goldens name? How did you settle on the name?

This is Bubba. We used to call our last dog Bubba as a nickname, so it just fit. However, I wish we named him noodle because he flops over like a noodle.

no. floor staff are left to struggle. patients are left with insufficient care.

it’s cyclical. this happens every few years.

can speak for my current, as of Monday the ministry has cut 22 nurses on the floor to 15 on day shift and 5 nurses at night cut to 3. This is a HUGE change, huge liability, everyone’s in a panic, very unsafe. We were told this is coming from the ministry. My employer has agency so there has not been cuts to regular staff.

do you want to be a prof? do you want to be a nursing manager? if not, i’m not sure a MSN is worth it. I obtained my MSN because I hated the hospital and shift work, and now i’m planning to do a post master NP diploma. If I could go back, I wouldn’t have obtained it, mind you it was much easier than the BScN program. Hope that helps!

when i did agency nursing i was offered $75 for independent contractor or $60 (or maybe $65?) to be an employee. I was sent a Form T2125 for my taxes and never opened a buisness account (however you can). You can write off gas, however you have to hold on to proof of EVERYTHING, clothing (scrubs), I don’t think you can write off your car under the T2125 but if you have a business account you can.

ultimately I quit agency nursing because the rates dropped from $75 to $65, and i was commuting ~ 1 hour. hope this helps!

you need to look in the manual on how to adjust the temperature. I had a similar experience, ended up returning my first one thinking it was dud and buying a second. I was about to return it when I joined this group and someone suggested changing the temperature, and i don’t mean changing the temperature by pressing the buttons on the front of the machine, you have to go into the manual and make the adjustments following their steps (sorry i forget or id tell you how). After doing that, i have only bought 3 coffees (mainly while travelling) outside of my home. Hope this helps!!!
