Literally picked up my phone to go post to FB that enough is enough and Florida needs to be unionized then came to browse here… I have 4 weeks left in my LPN to ADN bridge program and I’m ready to sign up, no matter the cost. This must be a very good sign.
For real im watching this video from Nigeria i dont really understand many terms you used in the nursing carrier,but i really love and appreciate what u do,i will love to become a nurse as well
"If you're not a Republican you're a communist" lol thats so true. That is the pervasive view here but Florida nurses will complain they don't have a union. Unions protect against what happened to me last year, Workplace violence. If he comes back on ask him about how unions help with policies regarding staff safety.
Speaking of interviews...my wife is a new grad (but with 10 years of LVN experience in different settings), applying to Kaiser New Grad programs, and RN positions elsewhere. Recently came across your content and find it super informative, so awesome job to you and Monica! Do you have any suggestions, tips, maybe links to some videos I haven't seen yet, on interview tips? Especially for Kaiser, but for new grad in general. Thank you and keep up the great work!
Hey Jason I took your advice and applied for RN part time job with Kaiser Permanente North Cal spoke with Talent Acquisition everything looks good so far I’m praying I get the position 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
@@NursesToRiches ended relationship and moved back where my family is and back into my home I had. Now I’m married and tried to convince my wife to move out there but she’s not convinced California is as great as I’ve tried to make it seem
I live in south florida and never heard of this. I feel like it’s exceeeedingly rare, even within that hospital system. I think Jackson is the only unionized hospital system here, close to my job.
You're only required to work 4 days every 28 days, with two of those days landing on a weekend. So, you could technically work those 4 days at the beginning of the first 28 days and then at the end of the 28 days, with 48 days off in between. I have met nurses who were PRN and had a home out of state but it never lasted long. Most of them end up moving to California full time.

Yeah.. that’s like a hospital without ratios will sometimes give you up to 6. Making 1:6 a standard ratio is like making the worst case scenario your normal average.
Yes, it is. I remember regularly having 9 patients on a tele floor in an 8-hour-shift. Now our Nurses have 4 patients in tele and 5 in medsurg here in California. That's part of the reason why Monica loves her job. It's been night and day since we moved to a state with manageable ratios.
Have you made a video about the pros and cons of being a part of a union? I don’t know much about working for a union hospital because I have never but my hospital may become part of a union and I would love to understand the benefits of joining a union.
@@KingsChateauuhh.. by FL, you mean Miami? Because Florida has a whole has a lower cost of living than the national average while CA as a whole is the highest cost of living.. it’s not even a contest.
@@supreme5998 That was true before Covid. But, in the last 4 years, the influx of people to this state has changed that and we’re now above the national average.
@@supreme5998 Uhhhh, by FL, I meant FL. If I were only speaking about Miami, then I would've specifically said so. Like I said before, the cost of living in FL is quite similar to California's.
Ummm… 🤔 he telling a fat fazion LIE. Please tell what hospital???? I’m from Florida I’m a travel RN. I worked at Mount Sinai on Miami Beach and the rest of Florida is HCA….. and the base pay is HORRIBLE. all the nurses in Florida are BROKE. I don’t believe for one damn second he making no $80 an hr at ANY Florida hospital. He just became a veteran nurse with 10 years. Nope. This interview was cringe Jason. lol but I’m glad you did it.
I have to second this, as a Florida nurse. Jason was great, but the vibe is not a good one from this union rep. And no, you're not making $80/hr in Florida as a regular nurse. Realistically $33-60, the high end being with experience or tremendous differentials. Definitely not $80.
Hey guys, I just did a simple search for any random contract in Florida and nurses can in fact earn up to $68/hr at a union-represented hospital. Here's a link to one of them, and it's not even the one my guest works in: seiu1991.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/SEIU-RN-2023-2026-Final.pdf

$80 an hour in Florida is great. It’s such a low paying state
I agree. I just wish it were the norm everywhere.
@@NursesToRiches
I agree 100 percent!
Where is this facility paying this? Is this for icu only??
But how is the quality of life of nurses in Florida?
@@verlinooandasan3359 Nowhere as good as Northern California. Plus the work load is simply exhausting.
Florida is very anti-union in every industry. I should know - I worked in Florida for 35 years!

One of the best interviews you've had on your channel..this is coming from a FL nurse that moved to Northern California
New grad nurse in Florida and I make $32 an hour 🙃 with the cost of living here we should be getting paid way more!
Loved this!!!

I’m a Florida nurse (worked with you in Cali) and make only 40.50 at 10 years at a unionized hospital. I’d love to leave and go back to KP
@@traumamurse7017 aww. Is there a specific reason why you left?
@@NursesToRiches ended relationship and moved back where my family is and back into my home I had. Now I’m married and tried to convince my wife to move out there but she’s not convinced California is as great as I’ve tried to make it seem
Want him back on again.
I will see what I can do 👍 thank you!
This is great, would like to hear more about unions
I live in south florida and never heard of this. I feel like it’s exceeeedingly rare, even within that hospital system. I think Jackson is the only unionized hospital system here, close to my job.
Does he work for Jackson Memorial or UM Health System?
@@lilianeheringer4102 I was asking myself the same question
I need to come to California
Hello, Jason! I was wondering about working per Diem in Sacramento and being out of state. So, traveling back and forth.
You're only required to work 4 days every 28 days, with two of those days landing on a weekend. So, you could technically work those 4 days at the beginning of the first 28 days and then at the end of the 28 days, with 48 days off in between.

🛑Is German ausbildung nursing valid in USA and other English speaking countries.?? And if yes how can I become a registered nurse in USA after completing nursing ausbildung from Germany........
Did I miss the name of the hospital he is talking about? Can anyone share the name of the hospital? If there are 500 jobs while gate keep?
He said it's across the street from the VA, so it's either Jackson or UM.
Does hospital in Texas have this type of unions??
1:6 medsurg kind of sucks
@@supreme5998 more than kind of.

If you were 18 in 1998 then you are 44 in 2024. You must be 20 year old in 1998.
If you’d like California’s pay I think you’d also have to accept our cost of living, taxes, and politics, etc….
You must be new to this channel...
You must not know the cost of living in FL which is similar to California's.

@@NursesToRiches After 25 years, sure. Not at 10 years. Heck, you have Master's-educated Nurse Educators there making $57/hr with 10 years in.
@@redcapote4760 Fair point. But he did say nurses can make "up to 65+/hr".
So is the union paying him $80/hr not the hospital?
