1. Best way to avoid bedside care?

   Kandake replied to Lemon Bars's topic in General Nursing

   Not to be rude or anything. But based on the way many people here lament about bedside nursing and the current state of hospitals, is it any wonder that some new grads are trying to avoid that environment??? Coupled with negative experiences during ...

   Kandake replied to Kandake's topic in Job Hunt

8. Are CRNA's facing an oversaturation also?

   Kandake replied to Kandake's topic in SRNA

    Kandake replied to Kandake's topic in SRNA

    CRNA's. She just said RN's oversaturation was a regional problem not a national one, and if so I wanted to know which regions were not hit then. I was making a point in relation to CRNA oversaturation which she claims is regional also.
