  1. Any Arizona RN Estheticians out there?

    periwinkles posted a topic in Arizona Nursing

    I'm new to forum and wondered if there are any RN Estheticians in the valley posting here or any who are interested in that field. Thought it would be nice to exchange information.

    If you went to esthetician school, would they then hire you to do botox or would you still need all those hours of experience doing it first? Because esthetician school does not teach you

    MHarrah, It's doctors like her who make RNs want to start their own business. She sounds like a "user". Crappy wages. Ugh! That's a slap in the face, unless you are just there for the experience and...

    Yes, I suppose "know how" goes a long way despite which letters one has after their name. I feel it's important to surround yourself with people who share a common goal and have the experience and/or...

    periwinkles replied to carrie123's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Victoriakem, It was so long ago. Probably wouldn't be the same. I just remember it wasn't Cross Country. That one had a bad rep regarding the poor housing they gave the nurses. The one I went...

  15. Do you ever wish people didn't know you were a nurse?

    periwinkles replied to Jo Dirt's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, I dread telling people I am a nurse. So much so that when I had to go to the ER once, I decided not to tell them that. They didn't ask and I didn't tell. Long story short, when physician came...
