I am an RN of almost 40 Years. Why do I still have to do med test to get a new job?

Sorry for this reply being a bit late.. welcome aboard. This forum is a great way for nurses to exchange ideas, solve problems and be able to vent their problems to people with (for the most part) unbiased opinions. Welcome aboard ;)
