    Guest343211 replied to inquiringaide's topic in General Nursing

  3. Is nursing shortage a myth?

    Guest343211 replied to Angitia's topic in General Students

    Even where this may be so, the hospitals have employed off-and-on hiring freezes since 2008 at least. This is not new information. I had a CNO stand up and speak about it at a children's hospital....

  7. Healthcare Termination Process: You're Fired!

    Guest343211 replied to JoytoWorld's topic in General Nursing
