Welcome to the dumpster fire that is Healthcare in the US. Many in your shoes may think the way out is to get your MSN and flee the floor. Unfortunately, schools are pumping out MSNs in every...
Thanks! This is what I"m looking for... looking to maintain my RN license for informatics but my current state requires hands on hours, which I don't get working remotely in informatics. Will look...
I'm wondering if there are states that don't require residency to get licensed in that state; I've looked at a few but the info is vague beyond visiting all 50 state's Board of Nursing / Depts of...

I studied Kaplan for the NET (Nurse Entrance Test). I found 40 errors, typos, things that were plain wrong. While it had minimally good information, the fact that I paid for it, and it seemed not to...
