  15. Why Are Nurses Given Such A Bad Rap Today?

    vemiliob replied to live4today's topic in General Nursing

    This subject is getting far away than one could expect. Right now, I don't think Nurses are given such a bad Rap. We're getting better status. Probably we need more recognition yet. However, Doctors...
