2. Best Washington City

   mistyval replied to Gem_jewelry's topic in Washington Nursing

3. Best Washington City

   I'd vote for Anacortes...a small, charming community surrounded by water, lakes, and forest on Fidalgo island, and right on the ferry point to the San Juan islands and Victoria, BC. Not to mention 10...

   I've heard that housing in Pitt is pretty darn good for a city, but that sounds excellent. One thing that concerns me is that the person above mention Magee, and a quick internet seach turns up that...

   Hello everyone. I'm an RN looking at coming to PA for reasons I won't get into, but I'm interested in what people have to say about the Pittsburgh and Philadelphia areas. Hospital-wise I'm open to...

8. Deployments in military nursing

   mistyval replied to mistyval's topic in Government, Military

   I'm sorry, it really isn't what I wanted. Sometimes I take the bait and I know I shouldn't. I didn't presume to know anything about what you're thinking...just that it didn't seem like an unreasonable...

    mistyval replied to mistyval's topic in Government, Military

    mistyval replied to mistyval's topic in Government, Military

    Yeah, I know, I don't mean to sound so defensive. I get real irritated by all that talk about how "its the military, thus its your job to do whatever and go wherever." Its bullcrap. How many officers...

    mistyval replied to mistyval's topic in Government, Military

    I had mentioned that I was okay with deployments, but I'd just like to get a sense of where to, for how long, and in what conditions. I had also mentioned I was once enlisted in the Navy. Its not like...
