Okie wants to move to TX!

Updated Feb 07, 2007 at 07:30 PM by sirI

Hi everyone!
I'm a nursing student who will be graduating in May with a BSN and want to focus on Acute care in a NICU, ICU or ER. I plan on moving to the Waco TX area following graduation and am wondering about my options along with some local wisdom. Any and all input is GREATLY appreciated! Thanx everyone

Thanks for the welcomes and the knowledge everyone! lilkim, do you know if any of those that you mentioned in Waco or Temple are Level 1 trauma facilities? I sorta doubt it based on Waco's size but ya never know! I'm going down there next weekend and I'm gonna try to get a better lay of the land so to speak. Again- thanks everyone- Ya know how to make a guy feel at home!
