  5. Do I need a suit???

    I'm real nosy when it comes to asking questions. I would call a couple of hospitals in the area and ask to speak with Human Resources. Then I'd just say I was doing a little research on what to...

    AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! That was aweful! I had nothing to do, nothing to read, nothing to get upset over or anything. Glad it's back up! Good allnurses, good....
  12. Need some help

    Hey, don't know what state you're in, so I'll have to say definitely check with your potential schools and Board of Nursing to get more accurate details than what we'll say. It varies, sometimes...
  13. Croc shoes Worth it? Or forget it??

    I love them! I have virtually no arch to my foot, so most shoes end up hurting my feet. But these.........WOW! I've only had them about five weeks now, but I'm converted. Give me crocs instead of...

  18. Ok maybe a dumb question but.....

    I think it's fine to go in without experience. As long as you have it in your heart. They'll teach you everything a CNA does in the first semester anyway. I'm currently a CNA working my way through...

    I'd be like, "Alright, as long as it goes for the guys,

  22. Spouse adjustment problems? HELP!

    Hmmm, my husband seems to love the idea of my money-making success in the future. He's a musician, so when I get out of school, he'll be able to hit the road with me when I do travel nursing and play...
