    Having major concerns going the FNP route....

    zenman replied to jlcole45's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I personally think admissions tests provide jobs for a group of people. I had a really low score on the GRE but I don't think the university even cared. Good thing since I'm have almost a 4.0 GPA. I...

    Managing symptoms for a �good death�

    zenman replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Hospice, Palliative

    Managing symptoms for a �good death�

    zenman replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Hospice, Palliative

    The shamanic practice is designed to heal soul wounds, in ourselves first, and then in our clients. Yes, I think a person who has unfinished business tends to be bound to the earth and takes longer to...
