    25 years old when I started my BSN program. Ages at our school ranged from 20 to mid 60's. I think personality, stress management, and study habits were a bigger factor than age when it came to student success. Everyone was awesome. I felt really luc...

    Starting an ER job with no orientation?

    TrevyRN replied to LostnNakedNursing's topic in Emergency
