   DabofDantrolene replied to sonia211's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

   We all got into this profession to make a difference (at least I like to think we all do). Being in a situation where you can't because of factors outside of your control leads to moral injury. It's...

6. What Kind of Patients Do You LIKE Most?

   DabofDantrolene replied to VivaLasViejas's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

   I like the patient who teeters along in the ICU, and everyone wonders if they'll ever make it out. Then, they make a turnaround. Far and few in between, but gotta hang on to the underdog

    DabofDantrolene replied to Guest908919's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    For those who have been accepted to a program or are currently applying, what techniques did you use to formulate interview replies? I feel like I have a wealth of experience and stories, but some of...

    DabofDantrolene replied to Overthamoon's topic in General Nursing
