  3. Frustrated with the image of nursing

    buddiage replied to Missa's topic in General Nursing

    Yeah, raunch culture helps, doesn't it? BTW, I've been reading the reviews for the book you recommended Marie- I'm going to get it. I've been thinking, even prior to this, of starting a website to...

  4. Frustrated with the image of nursing

    buddiage replied to Missa's topic in General Nursing

  6. Frustrated with the image of nursing

    buddiage replied to Missa's topic in General Nursing

    buddiage replied to Missa's topic in General Nursing

    buddiage replied to indigo girl's topic in Patient Safety Issues

  12. My wife is starting nursing school

    buddiage replied to realitybias's topic in General Nursing

    The ADN will be something to fall back on while she climbs in her education to be whatever it is she wants. BSNs SOMETIMES make slightly more, but your wife is doing what I will be doing. Build a...

    buddiage replied to UM Review RN's topic in General Nursing

    Well, okay... as long as you didn't say anything about lemon juice. PeachPie: "I'd rather run a kissing booth at an oral herpes and halitosis convention than study" How about at a doggy coprophagia...

  18. I have insomnia!!!

    buddiage replied to beautifulb's topic in General Nursing
