About Whts_Ur_Emergency?

Whts_Ur_Emergency? has 7 years experience and specializes in ER Telemetry.

I began my journey to becoming an RN at WTCC in Raleigh NC but quit with only three classes to graduate to chase love, only to find out no one in Charlotte would take my credits and I was working as an Emergency Room NA and decided after 2 yrs of inactivity to start over at Mercy School of Nursing in Charlotte, and I am so glad I did! Mercy is a wonderful school. Since then I have worked in the ER, Step-down, LTC and Homecare. The ER has been my favorite but due to a back injury it was just to physically taxing. Im back in my home town of Cary, NC.

    Whts_Ur_Emergency? replied to pageturnstyle's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I dont see how that was a heroic measure but maybe your facility has a policy in place that states what a heroic measure is or that you need a doctors order to suction. I would demand to see the...

    Whts_Ur_Emergency? replied to Heather0399's topic in Emergency
