Pros
Flexibility with scheduling being a field team nurse. Developing long term relationships with patients and their families. Going home every day even if it was terrible day knowing that I've made a difference in someone's life. Yes that's true for all of Nursing but at the end of Life Care any little thing that you can do to make a difference is exceptionally poignant. They also have their own Warehouse and supply all their own medical equipment and their own Pharmacy it's a huge operation and even the delivery drivers are educated on end of life if they have the compassion when delivering oxygen for example to explain it gently to family and patient when in the home. Interdisciplinary staff are immensely supportive and CNAs are mostly Heaven Sent.
Cons
My salary as an RN was $10k less than what the work amounted. Blood sweat and tears (my own). Team Physicians can be exceedingly difficult to work with and management supports the MDs over their team of nurses, better financially to retain an MD than replace a nurse. Very disappointing Trustbridge.
