  2. Transgender Nurses - experiences/opinions

    Kaley1 replied to Kaley1's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I agree Esme12, it takes courage to stand up for your beliefs, and I never felt like anything Poeboy said was based in hostility or hatred. I hope he doesn't mind that I share this, but he sent me a...

  4. SSM Futures

    Kaley1 replied to amichelle1126's topic in General Nursing

    Are you graduating in May? If so, don't sweat it just yet! A lot of my fellow students were hired by SSM, and some of them didn't find out until much later. I think even a couple in May and June....

  5. Transgender Nurses - experiences/opinions

    Kaley1 replied to Kaley1's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

  7. What do I do?

    Kaley1 replied to Emily#1's topic in General Nursing

    Kaley1 replied to Kaley1's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Thanks for the post, I live in the Midwest and am currently searching for new, more hospitable places to begin my career and I had not considered Mass. That makes sense and is good to know! Also, I...

  10. Transgender Nurses - experiences/opinions

    Kaley1 replied to Kaley1's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

  11. Transgender Nurses - experiences/opinions

    Kaley1 replied to Kaley1's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

  13. Volunteer Nursing

    Kaley1 replied to holakarly's topic in General Nursing

    There are quite a few out there, project hope and msf are the first two that come to mind. I have looked into this as well, and am pretty skeptical of a lot of the fee based volunteer programs but...
