    wcbembe replied to LVN_Soon2Be's topic in Men in Nursing

  6. Undershirt

    wcbembe replied to OwlieO.O's topic in Men in Nursing

  12. Why a Nurse?

    wcbembe replied to Ant24's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Hi, My humble advice? Stay in the 90K job for another year (or two) and bank away cash to go toward a nursing program in a STATE school (not a private school). Meanwhile, get all of your prerequisites...
