   HornsRN replied to CapeCodMermaid's topic in Geriatric, LTC

   Ever work in CA as a nurse? The law enforced patient to nurse ratios, now that's one thing the state got right (there aren't many)! Because of the strict laws they maintain a larger float pool and...

2. I Hope No One Hires You

   HornsRN replied to CapeCodMermaid's topic in Geriatric, LTC

3. I Hope No One Hires You

   HornsRN replied to CapeCodMermaid's topic in Geriatric, LTC

   Is it wrong? No. Perhaps I should reword it. IF you are person, merely seeking a "stable job" and you think that nursing is the "stable job" for you then you MIGHT be very surprised on that it is a...

    HornsRN replied to HornsRN's topic in Advanced Practice

    Yeh I agree with ya for the most part (although I wouldn't use the word drivel, just not interested in it heh). The lack of interest in challenging discussion disappoints me. And SDN? Ugh, no thx....

    HornsRN replied to HornsRN's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    They don't. I am also considering MSN programs now just to open my options. Honesty I just wish I could be in South Bama's Emergency program. The dual FNP/ANP cert is really appealing to me as I am...
