Hello My name is CPT Tirado and I am a Army Nurse. I work in the OR. I was recently stationed in Hawaii for 4 years. I grew up in Chicago and graduated with a BSN in 2001. After graduation I went to work for a civilian hospitol in IL for 1 year. A classmate of mine joined the Army out of school and we kept in touch for that 1 year. While she was being charge nurse, assitant head nurse, traveling, getting education opportunities to help her grow both professionaly and leadership skills, I was stuck on a oncology ward with older burned out nurses complaining about everything and not mentoring me. Also she was making far more money than I was. Joining the Army has been one of the best decisions i have made in my life. If you need any more questions answered about what incentives the Army has to offer nurses please email me ar
