   Thank you for the helpful comments. Wow to the nasty useless comments from those obviously jealous I have the support and financial mean to leave nursing and never look back. I do know what I want to do, I've known for years, (don't feel like shari...

7. RN with expired license calling in scripts for family...family wants us to do it too.

   BettyBoopsRN replied to BettyBoopsRN's topic in General Nursing

   I was a member of this site years ago and left because it annoyed me. I only rejoined because I wanted to express this crumby situation to other nurses. If I had more details about my aunt I would have already done what needed to be done. But I don't...

   BettyBoopsRN replied to BettyBoopsRN's topic in General Nursing

   Thank you some for the replies. SOme people seemed to miss read what I said. We are not involved in my aunts conduct at all. WE (myself or DH) are not enabling her, and I feel the rest of the family that uses her services just sees it as free access ...
