    funinsun replied to inthesky's topic in Post Graduate Students

  12. Experience With Your Preceptor

    funinsun replied to henryswife's topic in North Carolina Nursing

  15. So Why Wake Med Again?

    funinsun replied to henryswife's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    I don't know about how Wake Med's program is (I hear it's good), but it doesn't sound like CMC or Presby has an 'in depth' program as it does from what I hear.. CMC certainly recognizes that you are a...

    funinsun replied to LaNorteBellaRN's topic in General Nursing

    Hi ZippyGBR, I didn't mean to sound like I was debating the validity of the Rapid Response element-just saying that I have actually worked where both staff and families could use it (they posted the...

    funinsun replied to LaNorteBellaRN's topic in General Nursing
