  1. why are cna's treated like they are stupid and replaceable?

    Sgt_Chunk_Spelunker replied to Purple Princess's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    Sgt_Chunk_Spelunker replied to April_LPN's topic in Geriatric, LTC

  8. Help regarding nursing priorities in regards to patient care

    Sgt_Chunk_Spelunker replied to tterri22's topic in General Nursing

    Sgt_Chunk_Spelunker replied to Sgt_Chunk_Spelunker's topic in General Nursing

    The truth is that old habits die hard. I won't change my boss and neither will she change me...so I'm going to change positions to limit my contact with her. It's my fault if I continue to let her be...

  14. Let's Hear About Your First Year

    Sgt_Chunk_Spelunker replied to Tweety's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not sure yet. I was just laid off, am having a difficult time finding another LPN job, and am not sure that I even care about being a nurse anymore... I was treated like crap at my last job. The...
