    efda3 replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in General Nursing

    efda3 replied to StephRN08's topic in General Nursing

  11. Just get out of nursing already

    efda3 replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in General Nursing

  12. Just get out of nursing already

    efda3 replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in General Nursing

  15. if you had to do it all over again, what profession would u choose?

    efda3 replied to johnnyDoGood's topic in General Nursing
