  2. Medical assistants and LPNs

    asoonernurse replied to Angela Ma's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

  3. Second guessing

    asoonernurse replied to trjohnson0213's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

  8. Another thread on lazy CNAs

    asoonernurse replied to catlynLPN's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    No. You only need permission if you plan to use the image to make a profit (i.e. television, magazines, advertisements, etc.) Anyway, the picture would only be used to show the DON or ADON that your...

    asoonernurse replied to catlynLPN's topic in LPN, LVN Corner
