  8. Fillipino nurses, their way of doing things abroad

  10. Fillipino nurses, their way of doing things abroad

    This is my point, if any group of people dominate a facility and proceed to mistreat others (staff that are not of their nationality and patients) , it needs to be addressed. In my case, it happens...

  12. Fillipino nurses, their way of doing things abroad

  18. Are you content at LVN level?

    Yes, it is good enough but others will tell you differently. I hear it daily. I may or may not go back to be an RN if only for the pay. Besides that I am proud to be an LPN and feel quite content as...

    Can there be a stickie to post upcoming job and career fairs? That would be helpful so that theyre not buried among the other threads. Also does anyone know of any upcoming job fairs?
