  1. Medical Uniforms

    SouthTXRN replied to twoheartbeats's topic in General Nursing

    I have seven sets with each set costing about $35.00 to $40.00 but I only replace them every two years or so when they look a little faded. I also own one lab coat which I've had for about five years...

  2. To Quit or Not to Quit

    SouthTXRN replied to DustBunnies's topic in General Nursing

    Anything new can be pretty scary. Take things one day at a time and see how you feel. It's pretty routine for you to have to know all your meds, labs, x-rays, health history, nursing dx's and such but...

    SouthTXRN replied to TX RN's topic in General Nursing

    No I'm WAY further south than

  8. The worst part of nursing?

    SouthTXRN replied to SeattleKid09's topic in General Nursing

    Have to agree. Nothing takes my appetite away quicker than suctioning a trach on a phlegmy patient. The ET tubes aren't as bad, but for some reason trachs are my kryptonite. But you know what's really...

    SouthTXRN replied to TX RN's topic in General Nursing
