    jennylee321 replied to EDNURSE20's topic in General Students

  16. New RN struggling with first job out of school

    jennylee321 replied to k3depro's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I don't think new grads should be starting in picu to begin with, let alone having an insufficient orientation there. It's also hard to start in a float pool position as a new grad but I think it...
