  1. Measles and camp staff

  5. Why camp nursing?

  11. Packing List

    blue bag nurse replied to Amethya's topic in Camp

    Take your creature comforts. I always tend to overpack, but since I drive my own car, that is okay. After doing it for 10 years, I know as long as I have my good pillow, a makeup mirror and my...

    blue bag nurse replied to lajf.crs's topic in Camp

    It's been a really long time since I found my job, but I think it was the ACN website that I used. The Association of School Nurses is a good one too. The past 2 nurses hired at our camp came to us...

  17. What Do You Love About Nursing?

    blue bag nurse replied to Allison007's topic in General Nursing
