  1. CSICU Practicum

    Be proactive/hands-on to the best of your ability. Just because you're in a specialized unit doesn't mean the nurses there don't need assistance with other issues, no matter how minor (IV, foley, NGT insertions, bs errands etc) If you make yourself a...
  2. Pay Grid

    Thanks HouTX, I saw that they offer that on Glassdoor, and was hoping there was something similar to that for nurses, but alas no. It was a long shot, but either way something will be done! haha. The problem is that for nurses, pay is also...
