Employers recognize the value of CCM certification and financially support ongoing professional development, 58% pay for case managers to take the CCM exam, 44% require the credential, and 43% pay for CCM renewal. CCMs who supervise other case managers recognize the value of the credential when hiring—and so do their employers. Are you ready to get certified?
Being Asked to Give References for Someone You Don't Respect
...and you really have very little respect for that person's work ethic.
💰New NPs Should Be Realistic About Compensation
I am running across new grads who have no idea what a realistic salary range is. I strongly urge you to look at job boards and postings to get an idea for the salary range in your desired specialty and location.
Please, I need your insight.
I've decided to prepare for an LPN to RN program. During my LPN studies, many of my classmates looked down on me because I didn't have any prior experience in the medical field.
Leaving outpatient for bedside, feeling guilty?
So many people were in shock that I left a chill job, most nurses will fight for this job. My cousin who is also a RN basically scolded me for leaving.
Incomplete Documentation- New Grad
I forgot to finish my wound documentation. I did the wound change, took a photo but I forgot to document what the wound looked like. Now, I'm overthinking how to correct this.
Am I entitled to decline being assigned to a specific unit?
I feel my skill level isn't sufficient for an assignment. The stress and anxiety of floating to that unit is significant, yet it seems no one cares.
What is the most hurtful thing a coworker has said to you?
I've had one that is basically trying to egg me on to quit. She has said multiple times, "If you can't do the job, don't do it."
