On her facebook she was extremely vocal this weekend about her opinion. Since Monday though nothing - can't help but wonder if she was terminated over her post. There's no take backs on social media!

It depends on my mood honestly. A lot of times I'll eat dinner foods before going to bed (my system says it's dinner time). Which can vary from a salad to soup to any sort of meat. If you're looking for more breakfast type foods I use the carnation ...

I think it depends on the program/person. For example: 1) Our school refused to accommodate a fellow classmate who had cancer - she needed the cancer removed - urgently. She took two tests three weeks before the semester was even over, only for the p...
I wanted to say I am sorry you are going through this hard time. However, please know that this mountain is not unclimbable. I was a single mother, my son's father left when our son was about 6 weeks old. I was working as a 911 operator (which was a...
Thank you for this. We also give back all belongings at discharge regardless of whats in them. The links were helpful - thank you for the detailed information. Heron, it really is a "bucket of stinky worms". I know if I were a patient in the hospita...

Although I don't camp out in the breakroom this has been a huge issue in our school. I've had to leave the OR during an active procedure because I had to go to post-conference, I've missed out on cardio cath's because if I went it meant not completin...
Windsurfer - I care because I'm on a committee that students give feedback to the college on policies that are developed each year. Several of us were handpicked from the beginning and we have made a huge difference in the current practices/policies ...
Ours also discourages working. However if you work at the hospital affiliated with them you get a 90% discount off tuition so -- why WOULDN'T you work with that discount? I work for a different hospital in an ER as a tech and I love it. I think my ho...
