   AZSamiLPN replied to tookalongtime's topic in Burn

   I wholeheartedly agree with the above comments! My father was a patient in the Burn Unit a few years ago. I was constantly there to visit and get updated on his condition. The staff treated him and the family with respect. They were also very acc...

2. Anybody know about MGA health care??

   AZSamiLPN replied to arin9020's topic in Arizona

   I have a funny story about MGA. I was hired about 7 months ago by them and they already had a couple of cases for me. I was very excited because this would've been my very first nursing job as a LPN. I went to do my drug screen, but I was more deh...

   AZSamiLPN replied to cuteinpinkNS's topic in General Nursing

   It seems to me that a lot of nurses were going down a different path before nursing took them over. I wanted to be a lawyer, but my older sister told me that that career just wasn't for me. I was appalled and asked which career she thought was bett...

   AZSamiLPN replied to butterfly135's topic in General Students

   I'm finishing up my third semester and I have 4 children with a husband. So, needless to say, I haven't really seen them for over a year. Haha! I told my kids flat out that I wouldn't be able to do some things with them because I needed to study. ...

   AZSamiLPN replied to happilymarried's topic in General Students

   I would so rather be playing Rock Band 2 with my kids all day throughout the weekend instead of studying. I have been known to do this and it drives my husband nuts! There's just so many times you can belt out "Wonder Wall" by Oasis without getti...

8. No She/he Did Not!!!

   AZSamiLPN replied to Maggie in NC's topic in General Students

   In my psych class earlier this week, we were talking about Anorexia and our instructor asked if anyone of us had ever dealt with someone that had gone through it. I said I did, and some student said out loud, "Well, apparently she doesn't have THAT ...
