    netglow replied to lovelyb1368's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I've taken a test like this twice. Some good advice given above in that you can't overthink. Also, if you try and take the test with a certain "intelligence" you will fail. The test is to see that you...

    How do I 'toughen up?'

    netglow replied to GoLauraGo's topic in General Nursing

    How about this novel idea. How about NMs stop hauling nurses into the office for a "talk" all the time over this kind of stuff. How about just a quick notification, FYI, and a "Anything you think I...
