Hi! My school doesn't require us to purchase a care plan book, but I was wondering what everyone's favorite is so I could buy one! Thanks!

Does anyone know how long they have predicted the nursing shortage will be in the state of Connecticut? Just curious to see how long nurses will be needed, by the time I get my degree there will be probably be too many nurses!

Was your acceptance letter thick or thin and what school was it for--just curious as I sit here and wait to hear from one school! I hate this! :)

So I attend A&P 2 last night with a girl from my A&P 1 class. We notice that these students all took A&P 1 together with the same instructor now teaching A&P 2. This girl refers to me and my friend as "fresh blood" -- I don't say any...
