OASIS Ninja: A Home Health Nurse's Guide to Visits, Documentation, and Positive Patient Outcomes (Ninja Series)

According to Salary.com, the average home health registered nurse in California earns an average of $90,455 and up to $103,413 per year. You can certainly make money being a nurse in the home health care field, but it requires great skill to earn this much for a living. This is where OASIS Ninja comes in. If you’re a home health care provider, completing the OASIS tool is a must. OASIS Ninja helps clinicians complete the OASIS and provide cost-effective, patient-centered care. This will ensure you are up to speed on the OASIS process. This guide provides nurses with the information they need to provide quality care to their patients in the comfort of their own homes. The ultimate goal of this book is to orient a new grad nurse into quickly working effectively as a visiting nurse in home health. It assumes that the reader has basic academic knowledge they acquired in a BSN or LVN program, although with no prior experience working formally as a post-undergrad nurse. This is because if you can teach a new grad nurse, then you can teach any nurse regardless of experience level or which specialty they came from.
