  2. BSN to Med School

    TheOracle replied to JWestbrook20's topic in General Nursing

  3. The moment when you know why you're a nurse

    TheOracle replied to Darkfield's topic in General Nursing

  9. NPs in Private Practice

    TheOracle replied to pywacit's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I'm not a NP, but that is my goal, but I work for a NP in a primary/urgent care clinic in Mississippi. As far as the cost of running the practice, I don't know specifics. But when you take into...
