5. Can you be a Lactation Consultant but not RN?

   IBCLCLittletonJenn replied to philosophical's topic in General Nursing

   I'm not a nurse....yet. One of the many reasons I'm pursuing my BSN is because I have to be an RN to use my credential. I don't use it at all now. I'm also a LLL leader and the two are mixed causes so I just do LLL work. I think it's becoming mandate...

8. Intro to Soiology or Cultural Anthro?

   IBCLCLittletonJenn replied to weluv3's topic in Pre-Nursing

12. CCU?

    IBCLCLittletonJenn replied to Penny82's topic in Colorado

    My posts really bothered you huh? Looks like you went back and dissected it to get out what you had to. Obviously, you are not attending Regis since that's a "religious" institution. For the record, no one ever has asked me what my religious affiliat...
