   juleslevesQ86 replied to juleslevesQ86's topic in General Nursing

   Thanks so much for the responses! I think I am leaning more towards St David's in Austin. I am going to see if they have night shift, though they did tell me they needed day shift (which is odd to me!). I honestly have no preference. I keep thinking ...
