    SarasotaRN2b replied to beckabeckahi's topic in First Year After Licensure

    SarasotaRN2b replied to Whiffa's topic in Florida Nursing

    SarasotaRN2b replied to jumpwinter's topic in Florida Nursing

    Are you working in an ER now? You should definitely check with SMH...they seem to be in such need for ER RNs, they would snatch you up now with hopes that you will stay once you get your RN.
