1. Texas Tech University AGACNP

   Shiner50 replied to dmatthewb's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

6. Parkland Fall 2013 Residency

   Shiner50 replied to bprwatson's topic in Texas Nursing

   Dang it on the ER contract. I want to get my hands on it and read the fine print. How can they expect any nurse to be able to pay $20K if they need/want to leave. As I said, ridiculous. I mean, I...
