    new RN..what now?

    noyesno replied to chillin4me's topic in First Year After Licensure

    It has been a while. Hope you're hanging in there. LTC is long term care (nursing home). It's a little easier to get a job there. I know it's not ideal but it would give you some nursing experience....

    Best way to lift a sagging breast for apical pulse

    noyesno replied to noyesno's topic in General Nursing
