    The boyfriend hated Gabriel because he thought he was gay. He tried to beat the gay out of him. Could you please elaborate on getting charged for not sending a child home? Charge would be...

    Quarantined Nurse’s Scorching Anti-CDC Rant Goes Viral

    Kooky Korky replied to MunoRN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    This might be a simplistic or stupid remark but here goes. Since care for the virus is only supportive, does it matter that there is a lack of testing materials? I think the nurse should be tested...

    Kooky Korky replied to CardiacDork's topic in General Nursing

    Is it Friday yet?? (a cautionary tale about locked nurse room doors)

    Kooky Korky replied to jnemartin's topic in School
