2. Do you have a set schedule?

   CuteNurseUnl replied to Jmiami's topic in General Nursing

   CuteNurseUnl replied to adamsmom2's topic in General Nursing

   Nah, keep the job you love and enjoy it! My parents paid my way through community college and just like all the other posters have said, I didn't value it very much. I dropped classes often and it is...

   I found this site AFTER I graduated and started working. I wish I found it before I even had to do pre-reqs when preparing to get into nursing school. This site is SOOO helpful! Working in my current...

10. Ethical/Personal Dilemma - What would you do?

    CuteNurseUnl replied to EMEddie's topic in HIPAA Challenges
