I have been a nurse for 8 years in various inpatient and outpatient settings. I made the switch to hospice 9 months ago and I love it! There is a lot less stress overall, though some days are harder...
Thank you both so much! I got the other offer, and ended up taking the job with less call and more RNs. Glad to know my instincts were pulling me in the same direction as you guys recommended ? For...
