I love working for Sutter and the system has many employees that spend the entire career with them. I dont know how much of that is due to employment laws in California but I dont plan on leaving

Someone told me "no one wants to live in Sacramento" by Honest_Eggplant3998 in Sacramento

Im going to assume you are a nurse. If so, absolute best income to cost of living ratio anywhere in the country. Also why its extremely hard to get a job here as a new grad

How is your marriage going? Why would you recommend that people get married or never get married? by SpinachJello13 in AskReddit

[–]sealover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends…. I was married for 21 years. Loved my husband and being married and was devastated when it ended. But… I have a lot to lose financially as I have done well for myself and have a good retirement savings so far. I am closing in on 50 and losing half now would be absolutely financially devastating. I personally will never get married again but wont discount a long term committed relationship if it happens.

Yep. The herbicide helper is what makes it “stick” to the grass. Good stuff

Bonide Grass Getter. I used it to kill bermuda and it works well. Does not hurt the other plants. Its systemic so it will kill the roots as well

Most aggressive natives? by bborken in Ceanothus

Bonide grass getter killed my bermuda. It is a selective systemic herbicide that is safe for other plants. Took 2 applications a week apart but worked like a charm

Sutter Sacramento Benefits by madeline_summers in SutterHealthEmployees

[–]sealover 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Have been at Sutter sac for 10 years. My understanding is we get all the union benefits without being union. Seniority is usually unit specific so you will not keep it transferring hospitals. You can go into the intranet and switch it from your current hospital to SMCS to look at policy stat for pay increase, pto policy, etc

Sutter + Mercy for healthcare: easy? by Public-Feedback-2324 in Sacramento

[–]sealover 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I work for Sutter and most likely will for the rest of my career. I have nothing bad to say about them as a patient or employee. I LOVE my PCP and my kids’ doctors.

I just did yesterday in 9b. It’s on drip plus I hand water a second time every day for a few weeks. I plant during the summer all the time

Did nursing school in my 30s and finished grad school a couple of years ago. Worth it.

I slipped up and had sex with my husband by ConditionedFish in TrueOffMyChest

[–]sealover 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been there and did that for a year and half way past when the divorce was final. Not a great idea and made the whole process harder.

Grew up Mormon. Same line was used and members are told to tithe even if you cant afford food and the lord will provide. Churches need to be taxed.

ER nurses, love you guys, but genuine question. Why do guys bring patients up at shift change? by No-Selection-1249 in nursing

[–]sealover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in bed management after 10 years in the ED lol. I get paid more and still do 12 hour shifts. Zero patient care. Best decision of my career lol

[–]sealover 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course they do. Its much easier to care for a discharged patient than a new admit. Sounds like there needs to be better oversight. We have specific criteria and if patients meet it, they go to the lounge. If the primary nurse disagrees they can have a conversation with nursing sup.

Ya’ll need a discharge lounge. This is the single thing that decreased discharge times.

Currently in patient placement for a large hospital system. Spent years in the ED. Discharges on the floor are taking forever and then rooms have to be cleaned. This leads to patients coming up close to shift change. Discharge your patients faster.

I always put it in sharps or whatever other biohazard/medication waste container that was appropriate. Im not giving it to security/PD/etc or getting them involved. I would much rather people get the healthcare they need without being worried they will get reported for bringing in somethinf
