  3. A dancing nurse

    Purple_Clover replied to Sahastrar1's topic in Psychiatric

  4. Do I Really Want Nursing School?

    Purple_Clover replied to Barmherzigkeit's topic in General Students

  6. OR considered acute care?

    Purple_Clover replied to jellybean5's topic in General Students

    The way I see it, OR would help you understand a lot about how procedures work and what to expect after them. However, I would think that working on the floor may be more beneficial for an acute care...

    Purple_Clover replied to pretty70's topic in Geriatric, LTC

  12. Admissions Essay

    Purple_Clover replied to Jordan1927's topic in General Students

    Purple_Clover replied to sillycracker456's topic in General Students
