When I graduate from nursing school in another 3 and a half to 4 years I want to work as pediatric nurse, since eventually I want to become a pediatric nurse practitioner that seems like a logical choice. ~Carebear~

Hi, I just wanted to say that you can get certified to take blood from people, what you would want to look into is a phlebotomy certification course at a community college. It should last anywhere from 3 months to a year depending on what the requ...

Wow, am I confusing or what lol. I just got a call from my old boss asking me to come back to work as a PRN nutrition aide, they are willing to pay me $10.00 an hour and they will work around my schedule. I feel lucky, although I want to do CNA train...
