    27400 replied to crazyscrubs's topic in Canada

    27400 replied to 2bNurse-88's topic in Canada

    There's not a lot of RPNs on the floor. There was 1-2 RPNs working with ~8-10 RNs per shift. Overall I think there were 2-3 RPNs working in the unit I was on for my last placement. My unit was 2 units...
