    Scrub pants?

    Grey's Anatomy and Dickies Xtreme Stretch! Those are the only ones I have found that do not require me to pull them up all the time. They are the half drawstring/half elastic band! The all drawstring...

    Attention tall nurses!!!

    I always buy Barco Brand, in the Long Length (I believe it's TL when selecting). I've never looked at the inseam, but they are always plenty long enough! I want to say it's at least a 34" inseam AFTER...

    At my wit's end...

    Well, considering that you are here calling them "stupid" I'd like to venture out and assume you are part of the problem, even if you don't realize it. Do you KNOW they hate you? Or do you just...

    LPN/LVN Clinical Questions

    When you guys went through your LPN/LVN program and did your clinicals, where did you do them? Did you only rotate through LTC facilities? Or did you rotate through a hospital as well? Did you receive...

    Is LPN school hard?

    Well, it's definitely not easy. It also depends on whether you have an accelerated program or not. I did an accelerated program and it is pretty challenging with 3 tests every week. (One...
