    Interpreting New Director Behavior/Personality

    Emergent replied to mermer_rn's topic in General Nursing

    You will bond with new coworkers just fine. The hospital will be needing to hire travelers at a much higher rate when people quit, so they are ultimately undermining their own bottom line. I...
