  1. Business Nurse?

    jschut replied to TLC RN's topic in General Nursing

    I graduated without ever having done a catheter either! But now, although i still haven't done alot, at least I do know how! I guess nursing is alot of "learn as you go" type of job.....

  2. Poll Why do you stay at a job?

    jschut replied to Mary M's topic in General Nursing

  4. CNA issue~can anyone advise?

    jschut replied to jschut's topic in General Nursing

  5. CNA issue~can anyone advise?

    jschut replied to jschut's topic in General Nursing

    jschut replied to jschut's topic in General Nursing

  9. CNA issue~can anyone advise?

    jschut replied to jschut's topic in General Nursing

    Most of the folks I work with there are a-ok. Wish I could quit, but they really bust their cans to work with my school schedule and I don't want to desert them that way. I like the idea
