  4. If you could do it all over again, what specialty would you choose

    AnaLong replied to rb2017's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I would still have become a nurse. It is what I am meant for. As far as specialties I was just medical-surgical and did enjoy it before my NP-C. However, I did enjoy ER nursing when they were...

    I'm glad you asked! I'm really getting nervous after reading about people who didn't get help! And I REALLY need help. They previously said they saw credit checks as early as April. But I haven't...

  19. SO BAD at drawing blood, starting IV's??

    AnaLong replied to Chimio's topic in General Nursing

    Thank you so much. I never thought of Housecalls. I honestly thought that maybe I didn't qualify for this. There is a local owned 'housecall' nursing business in my small town. I occasionally go...
