I grew up about 15 minutes away from Wilkes-Barre. When did you move to the area? I just left the area 1 1/2 years ago, but am still fairly close. (about an hour away) I hope that you like the area.

Hi, I'm from W-B and I'm planning on going to Wilkes for their accelerated nursing program ( only 3 semesters!). What are you up to?

Parents have a cabin in Pocano's--spent lots of time in summers past in that area, especaily towns around Lake Wallenpawpauk. Love Hawley and Honesdale area. Make sure you are outfitted with winter gear. :kiss

That's cool. I'm going to ESU for grad school right now. Can't wait for the snow:)

I honeymooned in the Pocono's. Nice area. The winters can be brutal in NEPA, thats for sure!

I went to college misericordia and worked at a hospital in Scranton, I didnt mind the area, it wasnt too bad.

Enjoy PA and stay warm!

Good morning PA nurses,

I am new to the allnurses.com and am finding this rather exciting....

I live in the NE Corner of PA. Milford to be exact. I do work in NJ. I just recieved my PA licience and am seeking employment in and around the area.

Looking forward to hearing from other PA nurses!

MeghanRN,

I actually have lived in Milford for 20 years. I moved here from California.

I work in New Jersey. Newton to be exact. I just obtained my PA lic. to pick up some extra work close to home. I have two children in the Shohola school.

How did you end up in Texas?

We have lots of snow here this morning! Great for skiing!

In January - I dont mind the snow....come February I will be wishing I was in Texas :)

What area of nursing do you work?
