  2. A Day in the Life of a Hospice Nurse

    MSNce1 replied to Supernrse01's topic in School

  6. How old is too old to safely practice?

    MSNce1 replied to traumaRUs's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Like Juan I believe making decisions based on passe' beliefs about aging leaves little room for true understanding that aging is not in and of itself a disorder. There could also be rationale for this...

  8. Need insight

    MSNce1 replied to misslaceyob's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner
