    Casey, RN replied to berthajones's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    Casey, RN replied to Casey, RN's topic in Washington Nursing

    Thanks for the info. I'm not too worried about the size of the hospital - just that I can get a job in my speciality. :-) Do you know if the traffic from Puyallup would be bad - is there a way in...
