    Hi Jennifer, If I am not mistaken from what I've read here then the Navy is eliminating Navy OB and will need to hire civilian OB nurses. So, if that is true then yes indeed they were honest with...

    Gennaver replied to meownsmile's topic in Illinois Nursing

    Which part of the state are you asking about? I've worked at two hospitals that had the cafeteria cooking all night long, one even had a 24 hour Starbucks. However, I've never worked for a hospital...

    Have you seen anyone make a lateral move to the Nurse Corp

    Gennaver replied to IU95's topic in Government, Military

    Hello, Not sure if this makes any difference but, I think that all new nurses, (regardless of degree) start out as a 2nd LT. My undergrad is in Sociology and Psychology and I've got an associates in...

    Have you seen anyone make a lateral move to the Nurse Corp

    Gennaver replied to IU95's topic in Government, Military

    Hi, I had to think about this a second. Medicine and Nursing are similar but not parallel. Both positions are professional and Officers right? So, going from being a lab tech to an RN sounds like...
