    NursingAgainstdaOdds replied to RunningWithScissors's topic in General Nursing

  3. About to Kick the Hubby to the Curb

    NursingAgainstdaOdds posted a topic in Health, Stress Management

    NursingAgainstdaOdds replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

  11. What should I wear when shadowing a nurse?

    NursingAgainstdaOdds replied to pshs_2000's topic in General Nursing

  12. what color are you as a nurse

    NursingAgainstdaOdds replied to Jabramac's topic in General Nursing
