    Anyone starting MSN at WGU

    I'm glad the three mentors I had were very easygoing and gave me the freedom to take the courses I wanted, when. Of course, I also didn't have really strong feelings about it

  10. I have GAD and have been on Celexa for 7 years. I've tried to wean off twice, with disastrous results. I've just accepted that it may be something I'll be on forever. Not a huge deal. I can't tell...
  11. I agree. I don't think I would have reacted the way the OP reacted (and I'm in Brandon's camp with questioning the "libel" label when the OP does not have firsthand knowledge of the person's...

    Discovery of Falsified Documentation

    *I* would not have filed an incident report based on hearsay from the patient/family. Instead, I would have given them the resources and contact information to allow them to file a report

    Post interview; Is this a good sign?

    Well, I will say that if they have no interest in you, they wouldn't call you and leave a message, asking you to call them back. So yes, I would say it's a positive sign. Let us know what happens when...

    Anyone working mother baby in a critical access hospital?

    What is a "critical access" hospital? Is that like a rural

    Preceptor Problems

    Agree with the others. Approach the manager and ask if you can be paired with a different preceptor. I'm so sorry this is happening to you! It doesn't have to be this way. Hang in
