  9. Need some insight on outcomes....

    Jonathank replied to mamaofgideon's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    While "goal" may have more short-term implications to some (i.e. 2 week time limit), "goal" and ("expected" or "anticipated") "outcome" are essentially synonymous. I'd try to make the 3 goals you...

  15. Where would one go about in looking for clinical training?

    Jonathank replied to okiedokie123's topic in General Students
