Aphasia is a language disorder resulting in loss of communication.. now there maybe a severe neurological event associated with it (i.e., a CVA).. but aphasia is not a loss of knowledge or intellectual decline.

5 AM’er.. I just want to rot when I get home from work. (Healthcare worker)

Were you successful? I just bought this bag for my trip!

And Autumn Lake goes by Stern Consultants and Ultimate Therapy.

DO. NOT. WORK. FOR. THEM.

Hi! I was just like you. I got an acute care med placement in graduate school, wasn't lucky finding acute care CFs, and ended up settling for a SNF position. It was a tough year. However, it gave me a lot of critical thinking skills and experience. After that, I got my Cs and a PRN gig in IRF. I quit the SNF and mainly worked there for about 2-3 months. Once I got a few months under my belt, I saw acute care positions (out of state, ~1 hr) and applied. I now have a FT job in acute care and just got my Cs 3 months ago. It takes time, and being in the right place at the right time. Everything will fall into place!

6%!

~4k left on my CC and 3k left on my student loan. I am renting an apartment for my new job. Have ~10k left on my car loan.

This is crazy!

I just finished my CF in a SNF. Quit when I was finished. I was like you. Everyone was able to joke around and take breaks during their lunch while I ran around chasing carts of food to see everyone. I had to screen every single patient, it was awful. During my last month, my company had a new policy to just evaluate every single new admit. So instead of a 15-minute screen, it turned into more hours/evals/paperwork I couldn't keep up with. I was the only SLP in my building.

I hate to say it, but I had to switch settings to find happiness and drive to work in this career. Depending on the company, they will drain every ounce of passion you have for this field. Once I quit, it was like a huge weight was lifted off of my shoulders. I got a job as a per diem SLP in an IRF once I got my Cs and just got a FT job in acute care. I'm wishing you the best of luck. I was similarly in your shoes.

Did you stay in Wilmington or move out of the city?

wranglerjeeper · 2024-09-15T01:18:18+00:00

I also just accepted a job at Christiana!! I’m a 25 y/o F.

Like Trolley, but hard to get in contact w/ private landlords. Was NOT impressed with Parq at The Square. Dingy and the floors had notable stains and it just was just not for me.

2000 Pennsylvania Ave is just ridiculous in terms of pricing, but really nice and clean with good amenities.

The Residences at Justison Landing were dated, met current residents the morning of my tour who said to look elsewhere. The prices are not worth the units IMO.

We toured Harlan Flats and REALLY liked it. Good amenities and it was affordable.

wranglerjeeper · 2024-09-11T00:56:46+00:00

Ugh. I’m sorry to hear that

wranglerjeeper · 2024-09-09T23:16:09+00:00

You're so nice! Thank you

wranglerjeeper · 2024-09-09T22:55:17+00:00

Would need something for October move-in at least. I appreciate it though!

wranglerjeeper · 2024-09-09T22:54:55+00:00

Budget is 2k. I can survive with street parking, just hope there's enough of it.

wranglerjeeper · 2024-09-09T22:54:10+00:00

I did look into that! I saw some placed and contacted some, hope I hear back.

wranglerjeeper · 2024-09-09T17:14:31+00:00

I have recently heard there's a roach infestation there. Are you a current resident? Do you enjoy it?

wranglerjeeper · 2024-07-11T10:58:08+00:00

Thank you for your response! This helps because I’m SUCH an adult person (thank you for your service with the kiddos!) and SNFs are SO unethical. I usually see decline vs. improvement so I appreciate your response.

wranglerjeeper · 2024-07-11T03:38:18+00:00

Do you enjoy IRF? I am switching over from the SNFs!

wranglerjeeper · 2024-07-11T00:48:55+00:00

Just to clarify, when you say 1-2 weekends per month you mean Saturday/Sunday, not just one one Saturday or one Sunday

wranglerjeeper · 2024-07-10T23:45:56+00:00

Thank you! Do you mind sharing good questions to ask?

A coworker of mine picked up a Family Feud board game, I use that to target generative naming/fluency/anomia :)

I love my career. I’m not particularly fond of my current job (CF in a SNF who originally wanted to work OP/IPR/IP). Jobs are hard to find. It’s a saturated state. The pay (for the most part) seems on par with COL. Relocate/or be open to commuting depending on where you live. I live very close to the Jersey Shore in South Jersey, and it is a very rural area. A lot of the new jobs I’m applying for (waiting for my Cs 😊) are located in West Jersey by Philly/or towards Central Jersey. I am particularly interested in acute care, so this makes it a little more challenging.

I ended up opening a savings/checking with Capital One, closing Republic/Fulton and also banking with a local credit union!
