  1. I'm irritated. Apparently not qualified enough to be a CNA

    luvmy3kids replied to luvmy3kids's topic in General Nursing

    Can I ask which hospital you quit because of the staffing problems?? You could PM me if you wish. I'm really just curious. I'm trying to get the feel out for which hospitals are good.

    luvmy3kids replied to paramedic_t's topic in General Nursing

    luvmy3kids replied to wannabmidwife's topic in General Students

    I took A&P before Chem, but that was before my school decided to make Chem a pre-req for A&P. So now I don't think you can register for it unless you have completed the Chem class (at my...

  13. ? Why are people saying that nursing is tough? i dont understand whats so hard about

    luvmy3kids replied to Jelet's topic in General Nursing

    luvmy3kids replied to TheCloser's topic in General Nursing

  20. Please Keep Our Friend in Your Thoughts

    luvmy3kids replied to MrsMommaRN's topic in General Nursing

  21. Drinking while breastfeeding?

    luvmy3kids replied to megananne7's topic in General Nursing
