    Predatory New Grad Contracts

    Jedrnurse replied to CreamCheeseRangoons's topic in General Nursing

    One factor about these contracts that hasn't really been addressed is do the hospitals really deliver on the orientation/training? I believe I've read a few accounts here on AN in which the...

    Nurse forced to work as a tech/CNA

    Jedrnurse replied to ThatOneRN_'s topic in General Nursing
