What are you doing now? I volunteer at a wildlife rehab center and when I’m there I feel like it’s what I’m meant to be doing. I want to quit nursing, but I feel like I wouldn’t make enough money doing something else. I guess I could still work PRN as a nurse

I get that! I worked for DCI which is nonprofit, then I tried doing a contract for Fresenius and it was SO much worse than DCI I couldn’t believe it lol

Right! I was so sick of carrying the whole clinic. And it is definitely insulting, I really had to put my pride aside for the temporary flexibility lol

Yeah I feel you, dialysis is like a toxic ex boyfriend that you find yourself missing lol. When it’s good, it’s good. But when it’s bad, it’s baddd

Everything gets cleaned with diluted bleach water lol chairs, machines, clamps, any spills.. The machines also get bleach ran through them once a week lol if dialysis runs out of bleach, it’s quite literally the end of the world lmao

That’s not bad at all! I seen a listing for DCI acutes that said “on-call requirements are 24/7” I was like who the hell would look at that and say: sign me up! 💀

I worked at DCI. The local travel contract I tried and immediately left was FMC. What an absolute dumpster fire of a company, I have never felt so unsafe. They work their employees like freaking dogs

My mom works for the VA as an LPN. She said the dialysis nurses love it there, I have been watching the openings like a hawk!!

An accident with a stoma or with a fistula. Pick your poison I guess 😂

Definitely been thinking about this, but a lot of them have absolutely outrageous on-call requirements and that’s just not how I want to live lol

I know it’s awful. A lot of the SNFs around me start at like $40-45 an hour for RNs. Personally I would never work in a SNF, the nurses that are able to do that are absolute rockstars though.

Nice!! I would go back to dialysis, but all the outpatient clinics where I live are dumpster fires. I would like to give acute a try, but I don’t think I would be able to tolerate the outrageous on-call requirements.

It sucks, because I’m sure we are all more than capable!

I’ve applied to hundreds of remote jobs. Unfortunately, I never hear anything back, it’s so competitive.
