    How does transferring work?

    NurseRies replied to AmandaMarquellCraft's topic in Dialysis, Renal, Urology

    I would say they probably will, they invested the money to train you so the company should keep you! And if they want to be shady about it, well then take your training and go to Fresenius!

    Travel Nurse Assignment in Houston

    NurseRies replied to chubby40's topic in Travel

    Sounds kind of low you're right, but its not gonna get a whole lot better. Meaning it would be hard to find a place that offered you $50. The taxable rates always seem to be in the low $20s anymore .....
