RN Supervisor Job Questions & Answers

Sort by:
I worked in one for about 6 months so I do have experience..but the way I got fired was bad since I got in a fight with the RN supervisor. Now I'm filling out a job application in another nursing home, should I put the first place as a reference, will they talk bad about me if they call? or should I just say I have no experience?

I want to do medical assistant, then go back to school for nursing. But thing is I really love the job as a medical assistant. I rather work in the office. Than be touching patients everyday. I want to know if there's any office job for a nurse. One where you don't have to deal with people's urine, etc. What else can I do in nursing that has no clinicals?

Which is "higher"? Which pays more? Are they really that different. How can you become an RN if you have a BSN and vice versa?

I currently have my LVN and am working on pre-reqs for my RN. I am still debating on whether to do a basic RN program and get my Bachelor's through an RN to BSN program after, or just go from LVN to BSN. I know jobs are more difficult to find as an RN now without your BSN, but my current job hires RN's to work the floor rather than doing the BSN position which is the supervisor role. Anyways, any tips would be helpful. Thanks! PS I reside in California, if that at all effects your arguments.

I want to be a nurse when I get older. I don't really know where to start, I'm in my senior year of high school right now. I was thinking jobs corps but at the same time I don't think that will be enough to become a registered nurse. Any suggestions/advice/experiences is greatly appreciated. Also if it matters, I want to work at a nursing home or clinic when I become a nurse.

I am currently a case manager/social worker at a non-profit social services agency. I have hopes of becoming a supervisor someday. Can someone give me an estimate of a supervisor salary in this field? I tried to Google it, but it kept giving me salaries of RN case managers rather than the social services one I kept trying to specify. Thanks!

My mom is a full-time NICU nurse for a hospital. The hospital is really slow right now and she is looking for a part-time job. I told her she could probably work at a company like Massage Envy, but it looks like they want people who are knowledgeable in deep massages. Does anyone have any other ideas of where she could get a part-time job. Please do not suggest places like wal-mart or target. Thanks!!
