4. The 4-Generation Gap in Nursing

   whealer replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Nurse Management

   I love Medscape too! Overall I don't think the categories are bad intrinsically; it is just how nurse managers use them. What I take away from the article is how certain events - specifically in...

   whealer replied to JayCimone's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   Amazon. I've always had a great experience with them. Their kindle versions of books are kind of annoying to use, though. I use chegg to supplement what I can't get at Amazon. I hate their iPad app;...

6. Want to go into nursing, but seriously off track, help?

11. Who is Excited About Human Cadaver Dissections?!?

    whealer replied to whealer's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    whealer replied to CrystalWright's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
