  2. Being an ugly nurse

    Jingles39 replied to mofomeat's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I'm sorry, but this has got to be one of the most lame threads on this site. We're seriously rallying around the "ugly" nurse to make themselves feel better because they've got other abilities that...

    Jingles39 replied to PlourdieRN's topic in Oncology

    Jingles39 replied to psu_213's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Jingles39 replied to ShayRN's topic in General Nursing
