    cally527 replied to Kadambari's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

  11. I just got laid off from a healthcare job and dont know where to turn.

    cally527 replied to Divalish918's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    cally527 replied to suzilks1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't blame you. As some one else said that is dispensing which is illegal if you do not have a valid DEA number/license. Not the same situation, but a while back I worked at a veterinary hospital....
