   nursegali replied to NanikRN's topic in General Nursing

   She was brave! I agree with some others though, you could have been friendlier to her! Had she not been a student would you have greeted her in the same manor? She is right though, some nurses are so nasty to students! Some really get on my nerves (s...

    nursegali replied to snowwhite2002's topic in LPN-RN
