    naggytabby replied to TexasCCRN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I have to agree. I think some ethical boundaries are being crossed when a student is not clearly defined as one. and, by the way, "student" nurse midwives do tons of hours and on call. so should I be...

  11. FNP vs WHNP vs Midwife vs PA???

    naggytabby replied to lauritasol's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

  16. (HIV) need help from an RN, ethics question

    naggytabby replied to RNin2007's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    naggytabby replied to elizabells's topic in Post Graduate Students

    naggytabby replied to HeartsOpenWide's topic in Ob/Gyn
