   Froggy replied to Jenn_RN's topic in General Students

   I got the m125 Palm. It runs around 149.00. The thing that I liked was it had 8mb memory on board plus has a slot for expansion cards that way I won't be limited on what can be on there as I go through school. I would have gone up a model to get t...

   I just wanted to let you all in on a great thing that is helping me this semester. A Palm pilot. The best thing about it is I have a drug guide on it that makes it real easy to look things up and not have to carry a book on the floor. Next kicker...

9. Professional Liability Insurance

   Froggy replied to Brownbetty's topic in General Nursing

   I'm still a student but do carry my own insurance. It's always better to be safe than sorry. If something is to happen the hospital or agancy ect... is ultimately going to cover their butts not yours!

    You sound like I did after finishing Micro. It gets better. I'm in the second semester Nsg 210 and really looking forward to getting on the floor to use what we've learned so far. The first semester was kinda boring because of all the bookwork but...
