2. What is the best thing about nursing???

   SueBell replied to JeN-SN's topic in General Nursing

   The very best thing about nursing in 11 years - well I am an upbeat person with a lovable personality (that is my greatest asset) - so the best thing about nursing for me would be meeting patients and getting to know them.

3. The price of healthcare

   SueBell replied to Nightcrawler's topic in General Nursing

   People without insurance that have to have a procedure done in an emergency - well then they wonder why the patient doesn't pay - that don't have - the poor are barely getting by with what they have, and how can they come up with this type of bill to...

    You could ask the Nurse Manager about this first, if she doesn't give you a good answer, then keep your fingers crossed that nothing happens and hurry with the interviews. Good Luck!!
