    HunnieBadger replied to jacobs33's topic in Nurses Recovery

    HunnieBadger replied to HunnieBadger's topic in Nurses Recovery

    What are the restrictions like in VA? I know here in NC the first year is the hardest, and then they ease up some. I still panic each time I have to do a UA! Not that I've done anything wrong, but...

  5. is my past going to hinder my ability to get a RN license?

    HunnieBadger replied to shux's topic in Nurses Recovery

    HunnieBadger replied to RNMSN51's topic in Nurses Recovery

    HunnieBadger replied to RNMSN51's topic in Nurses Recovery

  13. Adderall addiction

    HunnieBadger replied to wondergirl22's topic in Nurses Recovery
