2. Sent home from clinical

   sl0352 replied to sl0352's topic in General Students

   I agree, but regardless, I still have to make the say up... My group informed me that this matter was discussed at post-conference (which I found weird), and my instructor felt bad for that happening....

   sl0352 replied to sl0352's topic in General Students

   I think that is true... You hear a lot of people being so excited for clinical, and I worry because I am just not excited. In fact, there are a few people in my clinical group who dislike going as...
