Hi- I am a graduate RN (graduated in May of 2011). I am moving to Thornton Colorado. I am from a farming town in AZ, very small with high temp of 116 in the summer. I am looking for a change. Here are my questions about the city
1. If I will be working in Thornton, should I live in denver and commute to work (6am in the morning)
2. are there any near by nursing school in the area to pursue a NP degree
3. are the public transportation reliable. i am not sure if i should bring my vehicle down (hence it is such a long drive from arizona to colorado)
4. any suggestions on where to live in the area ...i am looking for a nice bike route, scenic, friendly neighborhood, grocery stores nearby, bus route, fitness center, a library (all of these, or these in any combinations)
5. what's the starting salary for a new grad RN
thank you!! any comments, suggestions will be super helpful thanks!
