  1. Need help deciding to go from social work to nursing

    Kaileeia replied to socialworkertonurse's topic in General Nursing

    Kaileeia replied to Nursey103's topic in General Nursing

  6. The National Health Service - how do other countries provide care???

    Kaileeia replied to snoopy29's topic in General Nursing

    Kaileeia replied to OhioCCRN's topic in General Nursing

    Kaileeia replied to Kaileeia's topic in General Nursing

  12. Take the IV out... yourself.

    Kaileeia replied to Kaileeia's topic in General Nursing

    Kaileeia replied to NursingStudent08's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Kaileeia replied to NursingStudent08's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Kaileeia replied to daniedi77's topic in HIPAA Challenges

  20. My Two Cents

    Kaileeia replied to Joyfull77's topic in General Nursing

    I am in nursing school as well. Honestly, I would be ticked off if they made it easier. It's better to work HARD at something than have it handed to you on a golden platter. That would be absolutely...
