    In northern California, the market for NP's is pretty bad.. The few jobs available have pay in the 100 - $120,000 range. Mind you, most RN'S in California make over $120,000. There are simply too...

    bryanleo9 replied to DavidRNNV's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    bryanleo9 replied to inthecosmos's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

  14. NP schools now required to find clinical sites?

    bryanleo9 replied to Telenurse1990's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    The way things are now, an NP school providing a preceptor 2 hours away would be so much better than begging for one
