    AlaBro2010 replied to yourstrulyjmc's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

  9. Nursing Student needing ADVICE!

    AlaBro2010 replied to sarahsather's topic in General Students

    I don't think it's weird to go to the library and I would go everyday if I was in your position. Sometimes I'd be lazy and just go to the lounge down the hall. I study best with my music blaring in...

    AlaBro2010 replied to TheCommuter's topic in General Students

    AlaBro2010 replied to texasrn4ever's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

  14. Do nurses help preterm babies to exhale?

    AlaBro2010 replied to leekm's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    That's what I was thinking also. I'm a new grad so I don't know that much, hopefully a NICU nurse will know but I thought we exhaled because of the difference in the pressure of the outside the lungs...

    AlaBro2010 replied to yourstrulyjmc's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I am also usually seen as a quiet person, but usually that's in the beginning. I typically like to see the atmosphere before I get involved if that make sense. Anyway, what have you been doing? I can...

    AlaBro2010 replied to MamaD0719's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
