i don't think you have anything to worry about. as long as the tattoo is not offensive in anyway, you should be fine. I have tattoos as well and also have run into many nurses who have them and nothing has been said or done against them.

well, i have only actually performed cpr a few times, but you do get this adrenaline rush thing that makes you want to act extremely quickly in a case of an emergency. So, the adrenaline, along with your training which will need to be renewed every ...

IM a traveler originally from milwaukee. Went to Marquette University and got the itch to travel. But, that is ok, because my heart will always be made of cheese, and my shirt will always be green on game day.

I have worked nights (12 hours) for about 2 years now. It is not bad at all, but now all my days off are spent staying awake at night. I got so used to working nights that i am now mutated into some kind of night dwelling creature. That's ok, ther...
