    Heather, R.N. replied to Marie_LPN, RN's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Heather, R.N. replied to Marie_LPN, RN's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Heather, R.N. replied to Jayla's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I'm not trying to argue with you, but I certainly hope patients in every unit have a right to "dictate" what treatment they receive... I agree, though, the rate of c-sections is ridiculous. But...

  11. opinions about epidurals

    Heather, R.N. replied to Jayla's topic in Ob/Gyn

    My personal opinion is that it's a personal choice. I've had two babies- one with an epi and one without. The first one was with an epidural and was absolutely heavenly. I was cracking jokes and...

    Heather, R.N. replied to GodisGood1's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Heather, R.N. replied to surgeryrn's topic in Texas Nursing

    I think the current LVN's should be grandfathered in. How sad to think someone could lose their hard-earned career over
