    Possible Solutions to Nursing School Wait lists?

    BSN vs. ADN costs

    ExPharmaGirl replied to creativetype2007's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    I'm just starting the nursing degree, but I have other degrees from national. I like doing 1 thing at a time. I don't do well in a regular semester format. BTW, most of the nursing classes are 2...

    Hepatitis B Vaccine Safe?

    ExPharmaGirl replied to gkvegan's topic in General Nursing
