    Butterfly0328 posted a topic in Nurse Disabilities

    Hi everyone, I have been working so hard to get all my pre-reqs done in order to apply to a nursing program. After this semester I only have Micro to take. BUT, I just found out a couple of weeks...

    Butterfly0328 posted a topic in Hospice, Palliative

    Butterfly0328 replied to Trekfan's topic in General Nursing

    Butterfly0328 posted a topic in General Nursing

    I just thought it would be fun to find out what everybodys first legal "paying" job was. Babysitting doesn't count.. I will go first. At the age of 14 my first job was a motel maid at a Best Western...

  17. What was your first "paying" job???

    Butterfly0328 replied to Butterfly0328's topic in General Nursing

    You are so welcomed. I am finding it interesting that many of us loved the most basic of jobs. Maybe it's because the level of responsibility was so much lighter than nursing. Now granted, I am not...

  21. Sitting down to calm an upset patient is unprofessional?

    Butterfly0328 replied to kristandrews's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Butterfly0328 replied to rre1228's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
