3. Bleak Term 1 Outcome

   AmyJo2018 posted a topic in General Students

   Term 1 of my ADN program is done, sort of. Actually it's not; I have to retake pharm due to being less than one percent from passing, and I withdrew from skills/clinicals early on. I just couldn't...

4. Senator Maureen Walsh: When Do Nurses Have Time to Play Cards?

   AmyJo2018 replied to jeastridge's topic in General Nursing

   So Sen. Walsh made a slip of the tongue when she was tired? Think of the damage a tired nurse working a long shift with minimal breaks could do. I think she illustrated the point right there, but...
