  9. Relocating

    ScooterNurse replied to FazRN's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I honestly don't know what new grads are getting, but I'd have to think it would be better than 25 an hour. I know of one new grad here who is making just about three dollars an hour less than me,...

  18. Can I become a nurse?
