    Sympathy Pains....will they ever go away?

    Always_Learning replied to AndiePi's topic in General Students

    Honestly, when I had to give injections, pass meds, or do dressing changes, I was too focused on my technique to be worried about much else. Now, the dressing changes can be difficult sometimes...

    Always_Learning replied to caffeineRx's topic in General Nursing

    Always_Learning replied to shye22's topic in General Students
