HI! I really need help! My nursing class is requiring for us to interview a nurse that we would like to become when we graduate. Unfortunately, I don't have any friends or family members that are ER nurses! Is anyone able to take their precious time to help me? I would be forever grateful! And just so you know, this isn't my whole paper. I have to write a paper base on the answers I get. So please don't think I'm pasting this so someone else can do the paper for me. I would really like to be an ER /Surgical/OB nurse someday!!! Thanks in advance for all of your help. Please don't feel obligated to answer all of the questions, but as much as you would like to will be greatly appreciated!
