As nurses, I believe we are held to the standards of our licensure. But I could be wrong. It will be interesting to see what the state board has to say. If the board agrees with you, I will stand corrected.

I confess that I am very disappointed in the level of credence that is being given to this supposed DON's claims. Tell me, what exactly is a 'smirk' and how do you know someone is doing it? What if I define your smile as my smirk? What if the DON-div...

BeeJayCeeYa replied to su9032's topic in Louisiana
su9032, that is an interesting question! Since I'm bored stupid until summer classes start, I went and got some 2010 numbers from the State Board's latest Examiner for first-time passing of the NCLEX: 227 Charity 169 LSU 40 Holy Cross 34 William...
