1. Would NP be a good fit?

   uRabbit replied to uRabbit's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

2. Would NP be a good fit?

   uRabbit posted a topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

6. Don't move to Oregon if you're a new grad

   uRabbit replied to JulieB71's topic in Oregon Nursing

   This has been my general take on the market there as well. I have even seen Providence hiring for positions that a new grad would qualify for. But it has always been my thought that one should never...

    uRabbit replied to uRabbit's topic in General Students

    GrnTea, thank you much for your opinion. I am thinking this as well... It just may be the better deal. I would be an idiot to disregard someone with as much experience as it sounds like you have. The...
