    ThatPoshGirl replied to Matthew700's topic in California Nursing

  5. How do you waste medications?

    ThatPoshGirl replied to WondeRNurse's topic in General Nursing

    ThatPoshGirl posted a topic in General Nursing

  9. Religious believes expressed in nursing theories. For or against

    ThatPoshGirl replied to justagirl81's topic in General Nursing

    I think it really depends. If it is promoting one belief system over another then it doesn't belong in a college class, unless it is a private religious college. If it is a summary of religious...

  15. Nurse calls in because of herpes outbreak

    ThatPoshGirl replied to nurseby07's topic in General Nursing

    I really think this should be illegal. It shouldn't matter why you are sick! That is no one's business but your own. I can see requiring a doctor's note, although only at companies that provide...

    ThatPoshGirl replied to BabyNurse_PJN's topic in General Nursing
