  2. I am a new NP, with 17 yrs acute care hospital nursing experience. My practice is internal medicine "hospitalist". Until my hospital credentials go through, the last 5 weeks I have been in LTC SNF /...
  3. I am in no big hurry, that's for sure. The jobs out there in Florida aren't knocking my socks off with salary, LOL. I am kinda enjoying that 3 day work week right about now...I have a possible job in...
  4. I could take it right away. I just want to study a few weeks....you have a 3 month window if I remember. Plus, I am working full time as an RN - so I had to find time between work and "life" to take...

  13. Ok, maybe I am just burned out. The last semester of FNP school will do that to a person, I understand. I graduate in May from an FNP program in Florida. Relocation is totally out of the question for...
  14. I considered this until I read they will NOT pay back co-signed loans. My husband co-signed on most of my Wells Fargo private loans. So, it looks like it won't work for
