    love2banurse89 replied to dinah77's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    love2banurse89 replied to Oldmahubbard's topic in General Nursing

    love2banurse89 posted a topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    I've been the Director of Clinical Education in a long-term care facility for 4 months and love my job! I'm setting up a skills lab for the first part of Feb, for all staff, with specific competencies...
