    C-lion replied to gburgess516's topic in General Students

    C-lion replied to rn2be2006's topic in General Students

  10. Does this seem like an insane amount of prereqs?

    C-lion replied to milo2145's topic in General Students

    C-lion replied to C-lion's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  15. I desperately need advice

    C-lion replied to ElseeRN's topic in General Nursing

    I think the problem here is that her manager did not broach the subject of assigning her to a different shift or another area, but immediately jumped to suspicion of drug use. If there was indeed, a...

  16. Two Jobs and or passions.

    C-lion replied to Reminisce's topic in General Nursing

    C-lion replied to Donald11's topic in General Students
