    I live in south FL, it took me 8 months to get a part time job here in a field I had RN experience in. I started part time and when one of the other part time NPs quit I was able to go almost full...

  22. I think what the physicians are talking about is that with universal coverage millions of more providers are going to instantly be needed because millions of more people will be insured. With less...
  23. So the deal offered is to see elderly pts in the home, ALF, rehab centers, etc basically driving around doing quick home visits. Schedule is whatever I want it to be. The job would be as a 1099...
