  2. Is it legal to call yourself "Nurse" when you in fact are not?

    TeleNurse2010 replied to LoveMyDaughters's topic in General Nursing

  3. Texas ADN pay

    TeleNurse2010 replied to crazyl8y's topic in Texas Nursing

    PurpleLVN, do you make that much as a new grad, or do you have years of experience?? Never mind, I see that you have 7 years experience, so I guess that plays a part in your salary. $23 for a new...

    TeleNurse2010 replied to ScccNursingStudent's topic in General Nursing

    My advice is to work on passing the dosage test. If you haven't already, apply to other schools as well to keep your options open. You might get in if you pass the dosage test. More people than you...

  11. Jobs in St. Louis area?

    TeleNurse2010 replied to netglow's topic in General Nursing

    TeleNurse2010 replied to Valerie Salva's topic in General Nursing

    I have contacted my congressman on this issue. I think it is appalling what that hospital administrator is trying to do. I hope he fails to get what he seeks, and decides to put his efforts where...
