  6. Do I have any options?

    LCinTraining replied to LCinTraining's topic in General Students

    Yes, yes I have spoken with the program. I've kept them abreast of the situation. Secondly church is out of the option. It would be hypocritical for me to serve in a capacity I don't believe in...

  20. Black - The New White For Nurses?

    LCinTraining replied to JerseyBSN's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    For a occupation dominated by women, the idea that white was ever an option for pants is down right silly. No one obviously gave thought to periods when they came up with the white

    LCinTraining replied to Puddin2day's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If you want to go into nursing don't settle for psych tech. There are no opportunities for anything less than a bachelors degree in psych. Mental health is one of those professions that require the...

    LCinTraining replied to LCinTraining's topic in Nursing Student Assistance
