   To those that herald the war cry "Everything for my Patients", and breaks aren't important, please don't be offended when I say you are either young or naive. If you look at other posts you'll see nurses complaining of bad backs, bad shoulders, carpa...

10. What is the hardest thing about Nursing school at WCCC?

    4nomark replied to timinchrist's topic in Michigan

    "What's the hardest thing about nursing at WCCCD?" For everyone it will be different, for me it is simply staying motivated. Understand that in my opinion WCCCD attempts to teach from a "common sense" perspective first and then dive into the intricac...
