[quote name='Chika']I'm 26 and I know tons of people my age that work in LDRP. Most nurses start in med/surg for a year or so then move on. If she's got experience as a MA, especially if she was certified, there's no reason she should have to take a crappy job. Most large cities are in DIRE need of nurses.
She could also look at teaching nursing at a community college of vocational school.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, those are the 2 areas she despises. I don't think she was certified as an MA, but that's what she did until June this year, when she took her boards. Between a rock and a hard places as far as major cities go. In a 1 hour death trap of major cities. She hates driving, is narcoleptic (Ritalin not good for baby), and she gets lost easily. So the big time jobs are few and far for her, unless we relocate. Wish we could, but we're buying a house and not likely to sell it easily.
