    Acosmo27 replied to EJSRN's topic in General Nursing

  2. Need some help, is this normal?

    Acosmo27 replied to chiquilina's topic in General Nursing

    stick in there.. I will graduate in Dec 09, and trust me, I was pretty discouraged in the beginning (along with most of my other classmates) from having med-surg for three semesters. Until we got into...

    Acosmo27 replied to miwachiru123's topic in General Nursing

  6. CNA vs. OB Tech

    Acosmo27 replied to kalley's topic in General Nursing

  8. New Nursing Student Starting in January

    Acosmo27 replied to kselzler's topic in General Students

  9. Finally finished with Peds!

    Acosmo27 replied to OBGYN*RN's topic in General Students

    Acosmo27 replied to Brightstar's topic in California Nursing
