    Lovely_RN replied to 2bNurse4life4ever's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

  7. RN new grad UNPAID residency program

    Lovely_RN replied to rebean's topic in California Nursing

    Just goes to show how undervalued nurses are. Now we are expected to work for free post-licensure? What a sad state of affairs. Sorry but I wouldn't do it, especially since there is zero guarantee of...

    Lovely_RN replied to Marc86's topic in General Students

    I do tend to disagree with your statement. Ideally passion should be matched by academic excellence but if I can't have both I'll take brains over passion any day. If it's me lying on that stretcher...
