    "Two-yearitis"

    BSNbeauty replied to Ruby Vee's topic in General Nursing

    Not sure if I agree with the label "two yearitis". However, I do get the gist of what the OP was trying to say. I've been a nurse for 5 years and there is no way I'm over confident. Never have been...

    BSNbeauty posted a topic in General Nursing

    Am I being bullied? Or is this normal?

    BSNbeauty replied to baymar67's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations
