    2bNurse-88 replied to Truth66's topic in International Nursing

  23. Ontario hospitals who don't hire RPNs?

    2bNurse-88 replied to MobileNurseSara's topic in International Nursing

    Most hospitals in the GTA hire RPN's in the ER. Except the downtown hospitals. They obviously don't do as much as the RN's, but they do serve a useful purpose. I think it's great to have RPN's in the...
