  9. No nurse is going to answer this honestly but here it goes........

    c_beshore_rn posted a topic in General Nursing

  13. No nurse is going to answer this honestly but here it goes........

    c_beshore_rn replied to c_beshore_rn's topic in General Nursing

    I assumed no other nurse would admit to making med errors they didn't report. And I probably give too much personal info on my profile to be admitting to such

  14. Do you love nursing or hate it???

    c_beshore_rn replied to ysin's topic in General Nursing

    Best of luck!! Medicine is also very superficial. We have our rich patients that are able to afford the best of treatment. They can get treatment for cancer that most of us can't afford and...

    c_beshore_rn replied to ysin's topic in General Nursing

    c_beshore_rn replied to its1mc's topic in Licensure: Criminal History
