  1. Future Burn Nurse?

    hey, that's excellent advice - thanks:roll
  2. Why so closed minded? WHY?

  3. Me, a nit picker?

    Adrienurse- Everyone has given you such great advice. I know someone else who has gone through the same thing as yourself, and I understand how difficult it is to work in that kind of environment. I bet that you try to present issues in a very object...

    I have one BS degree & am now working on a BSN degree. I am very happy with my choice to go for the second degree. It has enabled me to become involved in research & work as an assistant under a PhD/RN doing some very exciting work. When I gr...
  11. Future Burn Nurse?

    I am beginning a position in the burn unit as a nursing assistant, part-time/permanent (until graduation from nursing school). This type of nursing interests me because it is challenging on several levels: intellectually (important!!), emotionally (a...
