   stevosmusic replied to melsothavy's topic in New Nurse

   My hospital will take applications your last semester of school. Also I work as an extern so I will probably end up signing a two year contract at the beginning of my last semester. You absolutely still need an interview though.

12. Status Epilepticus

    stevosmusic replied to stevosmusic's topic in Student Assist

    so is this cause because your body is using up all the glucose during the prolonged seizure? Because don't SE seizures last for a prolong time like 20 minutes?

13. Status Epilepticus

    stevosmusic replied to stevosmusic's topic in Student Assist
