    sallber replied to superking's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

  4. "Just" a CNA?!

    sallber replied to AliceTrout's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I love that I am lucky enough to have worked with some wonderful CNAs. A CNA can make you or break you, much like a nurse can make or break a doctor's day. CNAs are often the ones who notice subtle...

  11. Anyone here do in-house registry/float pool/PRN?

    sallber replied to Joe NightingMale's topic in Nursing Career

  18. Abusive and Cruel Clinical Instructors: Why??

    sallber replied to chicsurfs's topic in General Students
