I have great news! Work at the Rehab Hospital is going good, much better than the day I had "incontinent cdif man".
However, I have an interview at the local hospital to be a patient care tech! I would be able to do everything I can do now, plus they would train me to do IVs, cathethers, EKGs, and some other cool things. Plus, if I get trained for this, a full-time position doing that is likely to pay around $40k a year per Salary.com.
That might make a good replacement job for the one I have at AT&T, however, the catch is that I have to be hired as a CNA for awhile before they'd train me as a tech. It's definitely worth looking into.
I had a heart-stopping moment yesterday! I had to turn in an acceptance form to the college so I could take nursing in the Fall. I had to have it in by 4pm on Friday, however, I didn't even realize this until 3:15pm! So, I had to make a mad dash from work to the college to make it just in the knick of time! Thank God for Google Calendar and its ability to sync to my iPhone!
Working crazy hours at both of my jobs continues to make me lose weight, about 15 lbs. in the past month. I'm making lots of money though; that's what I need before I enter the school program this Fall and won't be able to work as much!
On this site, I try my best not to list the geographical location I work, even though this would not technically be a violation of privacy. I certainly never name the names of any patients I am assigned. I will never name the facility I work at. If I do name a patient or facility in a blog post, the patient's name in every case has been changed. If any reader notices anything that could be construed as a violation of any patient's privacy, please bring it to my attention immediately in the form of a comment.
