  1. Adelphi Manhattan - NOT a program for full-time workers!

    Junebugfairy replied to lifetime learner's topic in General Nursing

    Junebugfairy replied to Beebop25's topic in General Nursing

    Junebugfairy replied to kyou03's topic in General Nursing

    Junebugfairy replied to Aggiesrna2018's topic in General Nursing

    no offense, but a "lab tech/med tech/phlebotomist" does not 'asses', from what i understand. only nurses or other licensed professionals may actually asses. not even "medical assistants" with a 2 year...
