   antares replied to andreead's topic in Post Graduate

   antares replied to meag_92's topic in New York

   They paid for my MS a couple of years ago. I guess that the policy could've changed, but I never heard that I had to stay for 2 years. The policy is in Healthport though. Also, keep in mind that the accelerated program is beyond intense. Most peo...

    I had clinical in the county jail last semester. The information I have was just from talking to the nurses and observing, because I was with an NP. I don't know how closely it mirrors prison nursing, but I'll tell you what I know. The med unit is ...
