    Tx, You may want to consider changing the title name to "what country do you live in". Some of the posters may have passed by your post because they may think you wanted specific cities.

    ebear replied to disboibdavid's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

  10. Is This Legal?

    ebear replied to Emma123's topic in General Nursing

    Emma123, I don't know the state in which you live. If it comes to a major problem, I would suggest an appt. with an employment attorney. In the meantime, get thee to a Rheumatologist!!

  11. Shadow A Nurse
