1. OB for male nurses.

   TerryNeal posted a topic in General Students

   Time to breathe! It's good to be on breaak for Christmas. On to level two. I've been told I'll need to be assertive to have an opportunity to do much in OB as a male nurse. I don't see what the big deal is, nursing is nursing. It's all professional.

   I'm an ADN student as well by only level on right now. We had an overwhelming amount of busy work in intro. The worst were from the book "Test Taking Success". I'm in my forties and have been to college before. I know what works for me when it comes ...

   TerryNeal replied to happytypingirl's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I'm 46 and in school for my ADN RN. When I finish I'll only need three classes to get my BA in Business Administration. The two should go well together. It's never to late unless you think it is. Best of luck to you.
