    reddgirl replied to BostonRN13's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    reddgirl replied to BostonRN13's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

  9. Dade Medical College Nursing Program any graduates?

    reddgirl replied to ananursing12's topic in Florida Nursing

    By the way, it is nowhere near accrediated! ABHES means nothing. A decent school that meets standards should be NLNAC or CCNE accredited and they are far from it. Very few ADN programs here in Florida...

  14. Got a Per Diem Hospice position

    reddgirl replied to reddgirl's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Currently in South Florida, because we suck at pay they start off at $40 bucks an hour. I heard the FT'ers break the bank which I found to be a bit backwards. There are a lot of things I hope the...
