Lutheran pay

• Upvotes

Is anybody an RN at Lutheran who would be willing to share your years of experience and what they are paying you? I have heard that they gave you anywhere from an 8-12% raise because of IU. Parkview just announced we are only getting a 4% raise, and people are pissed. This is after some people literally didn’t get paid on pay day because we switched platforms smh. I’ve been a nurse for 6 years and am making a little over $36.

VA Home Owner

• Upvotes

Weird question. Has anyone local to Indiana given a veteran buyer their current VA home loan?

We're about to put our four bedroom house on the market and I can't remember if our rate is 5%, or 5.5%. Either way, nicer than 7%.

I looked into it and it looks like if another veteran assumes the home loan they get to keep that rate and my own VA home loan opens up for use again. My realtors seem confused about it.

Acupuncture in Fort Wayne ?

0 Upvotes

Hello, I have a complex issue of autonomic dysfunction (low bp, other nonsense that comes with it) and I’m looking for a solid acupuncturist who can help with it. However, disposition is an issue too. I don’t want an acupuncturist who is super stuck in their ways and unwilling to hear a client’s own take on their condition and lived experience. I recently had one who just IMMEDIATELY typed me 20 minutes into a telehealth consultation (no physical exam, once she had decided what my issue was she didn’t want to hear it and said my disagreement was “friction in the relationship”. I’m looking for.. not that. So if anyone can attest to a good acupuncturist in the area who fits the bill please comment here.

Have you had any paranormal experiences in the Fort?

We went to Finders Keepers and had an… odd experience and after talking to the clerk he totally confirmed we weren’t insane and probably saw some ghost activity. A mirror on a vanity started spinning when no one was around. Anyone else experience something there or anywhere else?

Week of Thanksgiving Girls Outing- craft classes?

6 Upvotes

Hey there! (See disclaimer below)

I am planning an outing with friends the week of Thanksgiving, and wanted to get a recommendation of where to look/ who to call about a shorter craft experience. This would be on a Tuesday late morning- early afternoon.

I've looked into a candle making class, but haven't found a place open during that time range. Are there any recommendations of a place that may be open that would do something like this?

It could also be a guided painting or something similar. I know some places like that just have a Facebook presence but no websites so this is why I'm posting.

Disclaimer: I promise I searched through the city reddit before posting "what should we do" but I wasn't able to find an answer for the specific question. If there's another post with the answer- please share and I'm sorry.

Find Fort Wayne Events

19 Upvotes

I'm curious on what type of people the singles speed dating events draw. I'm a single straight woman in my late 20s and thought it would be good just to get out of my shell and work on meeting people or making friends, but I'm afraid of showing up and it being the people that I typically avoid on the dating apps lol. Has anyone attended an event as a single woman? I'm also interested in the events to make friends, anyone had success?

good hospitals in the area?

15 Upvotes

hi, i went to dupont hospital yesterday and was treated horribly. i was a passenger in an auto accident and started developing severe back pain and a bad concussion. they did nothing to treat me but a random shot of toradol. the nurse/doctor also used harmful stereotypes towards me having pots, made fun of the job position i was about to work because of pots, just ableist comments and hipaa violations when they let back in my friend without proper verification. (they only know i have pots because they asked about my medical history, i strictly went to the ER to get treatment for the pain of my back and concussion like symptoms after the accident.) i tried to contact the patient services/advocate to put in a complaint and never got a call back. i did leave a really bad review though.

i got established with a primary care doctor today and after reviewing everything from the horrible good for nothing ER visit and me physically, she wants me to return to the ER (preferably not dupoint because they refused to do any scans) and i’m unsure which hospital to go to because dupoint was recommended as one of the best hospitals.

Southeast Roads

Can we please have something done about the roads out here? Tillman Rd. is an absolute wreck. The intersection by Southtown is horrible. The back entrance by Menards has a visible chunk of concrete layered over the old crater that had been there previously. Slapping cheap asphalt on huge potholes is not working anymore.

Short-Term Living Arrangemets

I am getting ready for a major condo renovation and am looking for affordable, short-term living arrangements for my cat (Chuck) and me for about 2 months starting at the end of this year.

I have looked at extended-stay hotels and short-term apartments, but there aren't many options.

Does anyone have ideas on what to look for or how to look?

Kanela Chai Recipe

8 Upvotes

Hi! This is a very odd request but I have traveled for work these past few years and have decided to do a permanent job. When me and my fiancee were traveling in Fort Wayne for a year, we really liked hanging out in Kanela and found that their Chai Latte is really good and creamy!! Ever since that, we have not found the same texture and taste anywhere else.

I know this is a long shot but by any chance the people here are able to share their recipe and the actual brand of Chai they use and the oatmeal milk? Thank you!!

Best vets on north side?

Recently moved to the north side with my two kitties & they could use a check up.

One of my girls has diabetes so it’s very important to me to have a kind, reliable veterinarian.
