    dawn.b-RN replied to HospiceRN88's topic in Illinois Nursing

    I also don't have much advice, but my guess is once you're back in the swing of things you'll do great! I also have a family and I quit my job to make it "easier" on myself. Looking at these modules...

    Colleen, when I delivered my daughter at Highland Park, my nurse asked if two students could watch the delivery...I was in so much pain, I could've cared less who saw what, so I said sure...the girls...

    dawn.b-RN replied to HospiceRN88's topic in Illinois Nursing

    Thanks for the great advice!!! I hoped we'd have class those days, so that is exciting to hear. So, I take it there isn't anywhere to keep a purse or coat during clinicals? Did anyone take...
