Yet RN salaries and benefits altogether represent only about 16 percent of total hospital costs. Nevertheless, nurses are a major target of hospital restructuring plans, which in some cases have called for a reduction of 20 to 50 percent in registered nursing staff.
The series is an adaptation of the Longmire mystery novels written by best-selling author Craig Johnson. While the story is supposed to take place in northern Wyoming, the series is being filmed in several locations in New Mexico: Las Vegas, Santa Fe, Eagle Nest, and Red River.
Created by Hunt Baldwin, John Coveny. With Robert Taylor, Katee Sackhoff, Lou Diamond Phillips, Cassidy Freeman. Walt Longmire is the dedicated and unflappable sheriff of Absaroka County, Wyoming. Widowed only a year, he is a man in psychic repair but buries his pain behind his brave face, unassuming grin and dry wit.
