    gingersnapper replied to lakerfan510's topic in California Nursing

    gingersnapper replied to Lady0121's topic in California Nursing

  19. OHSU ABSN 2013 Applicants

    gingersnapper replied to mamakac's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Can any current or former students speak to the quality of clinical placements? One big factor in OHSU's favor for me in making my decision is the fact that OHSU is an academic hospital, which usually...
