    medic9872 replied to keakin6's topic in Georgia Nursing

  4. How to study/learn medications

    medic9872 replied to cindirella3's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    This is the way I learned too. In paramedic school we learned classes and then the major drugs in each class. Of course we focused on emergency drugs but we were expected to know the drugs that our...

    medic9872 replied to unicoRNurse's topic in General Nursing

  7. Which Specialty?

    medic9872 replied to RN-BSNheather's topic in General Students

    medic9872 replied to keakin6's topic in Georgia Nursing

    medic9872 replied to keakin6's topic in Georgia Nursing

    The ER is ok but it's not always exciting. I'm not entirely sure what area I want to work in. After 5 years in emergency medicine, I'm not sure that's where I want to be. Too many people use the ER...
