I'm in NC, where do you want to live?

Anyone know the website if one wanted to look at federal prisons jobs?

LPN pay depends greatly where one lives. I make very good here in NC.

Memorizing the algorithms has served me well, I have used ACLS skills often and generally one of the go to people during them times.

Memorize the algorithms is all you'll need.

hello Anyone work in Wakemed ED??

LOL I would have asked him for a bailout. One night we had a old lady come in that was loosing her mind, she was calling the doctor the devil and in her mind he was. It was sad for the daughter because while they were trying to commt her to cherry ...

Technically it's assualt, yes. My point is that the hospital probably would never do anything if the pt is elderly verses young. Right or wrong certain situations carry various reactions with people. For example, if a 80 year lady is hitting on me, ...
