  14. What you'd REALLY like to say....

    To the lady who insists that her mom who is perfectly able to walk on her own be a 1:1 transfer for everything..why don't you spend a shift here. Try walking with her for 4.5 hours and therefore...

  20. First Semester and I am extremely stressed.

    I started my nursing classes on Wednesday, and I am so happy to have a nurturing teacher. We were all freaking out about what needs to get done and when, she's like I'm giving you guys all this stuff...
  21. Nursing School Students...Is It Hard?

    I get better grades now than I did in high school and I've just been officially graduated for a full semester. I think it's the fact that I remind myself often that I'm paying for this out of my own...
  22. Did anyone move back home to attend nursing school?
