  2. Older Student/Over 60 years old

    gpatry replied to forestlover's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    gpatry replied to thinwildmercury's topic in General Students

  19. trouble pronoucing some medical words

    gpatry replied to aflac381's topic in General Students

    That's something I'm really worried about too. When I worked at a medical clinic, I said "hepatologist" (still sure I'm saying it wrong in my head as I type this), and the doctor I was talking to said...

  20. How to not suck at clinical

    gpatry replied to ERsn's topic in General Students

    I agree with the previous posts... I don't think the OP doesn't know what they're doing. I'm sure they know the procedures well and would ask for help if they didn't. It's the nervousness (due to...

  24. Do Canadian Nurses get paid more than in the US?

    gpatry replied to gpatry's topic in International Nursing

    Yes, as Fiona59 mentioned, it's not socialist. In any case, I wasn't trying to imply any country was better than the other and I apologize if it came off that way. I was just curious because you hear...
