  1. Tell me about your first save as a nurse

    I don't remember my first either, I remember my best. I was the charge RN on the night shift in an ICU. I had 3 newbies working with me. They had all started about the same time less than 2 years before. I had helped train them after they came down t...

    Welcome home Kewl. Glad to hear the happy lilt in your voice again. But I warn you to think long and hard before moving. Been there and done that and it was a huge mistake for me and my kids. Good luck and all the best and be sure to check out Heath...
  14. The 'Dilbert Principle'

    Barbara, The correct word there is effect and I think the military was the worst for that. Someone who could not do the job but that couldn't be discharged would get a job with little or no real work to do. They would create problems for everyone bel...
