    scrapworking replied to Chris99mu's topic in Florida Nursing

    FWIW - I volunteer in a Critical Care Unit...the nurse's ID badges only have their first names on them. And I know in some clinical settings, we may tape over our last name on our ID

  11. OFFICIAL Fall 2010 PHCC accepted LPN/Bridge/RN students!

    scrapworking replied to Chris99mu's topic in Florida Nursing

    I was discouraged to get mine personalized/engraved with my name or other identifying information - mostly because of patients (stalking, etc.). I make jewelry and have done some stethoscope charms,...

    scrapworking replied to chuckz's topic in First Year After Licensure

    scrapworking replied to applicant2010's topic in Florida Nursing

    It can be discouraging after seeing all those people, but know that not all of them will end up applying or will have some other factor that keeps them from meeting all the criteria. Don't give up on...
