HI I WORK AS A TRIBAL NURSE AND ALSO A SCHOOL NURSE AFTER MANY YEARS IN HOSPITAL AND HOME HEALTH. i HAVE BEEN A RN FOR 17 YEARS I HAVE MY ASS DEGREE AND HOPEFULLY SOON MY CDE I LIVE IN A VERY RURAL TOWN IN NORTHERN ARIZONA I WORK 40-60 A WEEK MANY THINGS CAN CAUSE STRESS FOR ME , BUT I THINK THAT THE MAJOR CAUSE IS WORRY...I AM RESPONSIBLE FOR ALOT OF PEOPLE..................I AM THE ONLY NURSE .

as i said before i guess sometimes it just happens to you.....i am very proud of all those who do ..... it was one of the hardest things that i have ever done..my twin girls' are both finishing with their cna programs now , i am so proud of them... one just took her final exam yesterday an recieved an 87%..and she never thought that she could do that....she is smiling now. so remember to all of you there is joy and hope out there...so keep on keeping on...

:uhoh21: Hi Just Wanted To Say That Being A Nurse Is Great. But I Find That In My Small Town You Can't Go Anywhere That People Aren't Asking About This And That. Everyday People Call Me For Advice. I Still Direct Them to Their Mds. But Help When I Can . I Have Even Been Called To Help In My Church To Go Around To Peoples Homes That Are Having Problems... But I Guess I Asked For That By Becoming One.......being a nurse has also shown up in my children, both my twin girls are in a c.n.a program and going on to greater things...:uhoh21:
