    oregon_love replied to osbick_bird's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I applied for Legacy's women's health residency program. My interview went as well as I could have expected... A lot of it depends on if they're hiring on the unit or not. I haven't heard back from...

    oregon_love replied to megkat's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  8. How long does it take to answer a call light?

    oregon_love replied to rosey200735's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Only CNAs answer call lights my facility. And there is no time limit to when a call light must be answered. That said, everyone is pretty prompt about answering 'their' call lights but doesn't...

    oregon_love replied to KristenFoster's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I love Dansko's but definitely won't spend the money on a pair for nursing school. Plus, as a CNA, they really aren't practical; I've had my fair share of sprained ankles trying to make them work at...
