    Buffkat00 replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Buffkat00 replied to NiaSmith's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi there. If you really want to do this, you will become a nurse. Many of us have obstacles to overcome as well (I work full time and I have 3 young children); determination is what gets us all...

    Buffkat00 replied to newmale2nursing's topic in Male Nursing Students

  5. Tipped?

    Buffkat00 replied to Lunah's topic in Emergency
