  2. Husband and wife working together

    Blindsided replied to JinnyLynn's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    If these are your real pictures and names I would suggest not doing so. Good luck getting this all worked out though. Worked with a husband and wife team before, but they were in two different medical...

    Blindsided replied to CodeteamB's topic in General Nursing

  11. Feeling discouraged

    Blindsided replied to alihoff93's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Blindsided replied to alihoff93's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Blindsided replied to Blindsided's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    Blindsided replied to Blindsided's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    No I don't know which hospital. Yes of course I know what they're after, commonly called a "scab" but I do not judge those who go. They may have strong convictions for going and/or overwhelming...
