You float to different units filling in wherever they need help. You should not have to work days, unless you want. There are always plenty of holes to fill on nights.

Depends on which hospital that you will be at. Nurse patient rations can be as low as 4 and up to about 7-8, on average. But each hospital has their own policies.

Have you completed your English exams already?

Good luck.................. :balloons:
