I have observed that many administrators have good intentions they just tend to be alittle misguided at times. Stepping aside for a moment and taking a look from their point of view, I'm sure they didn't intend on demeaning the staff. I would gathe...

OMG, I am so nervous/excited/scared!! Tommorrow I start my first day as a nurse at my first job after graduating school. I did a career switch so this is my first healthcare job as well. Oh please pray for me.:trout:

Ok so my second day was a little better than my first. I think it will take a while before I get the "hang" of the daily routine. Thank you all again.

I'm going to be graduating the end of next month and the last week I've been working on my resume and cover letters. Well, I need some ideas. My cover letter sounds like a giant "I'm the best person in the world" butt kissing letter. I need ideas on ...

I just enrolled in the LPN program at MCI and was curious as to what I can do to obtain my RN afterwards. I'm starting to doubt that going to MCI is a good idea because I've heard from a few people that a lot of my credits from MCI will be no good in...

I'm a student and have been told by many that you will eventually get used to odors and they won't bother you "as much" anymore.
