   sgarcia14 replied to kayaks's topic in Washington

   St. Pete's is an amazing place to work at! I used to work in Centralia and would have St. Pete's as my number one choice.

   i'm in Washington also, yes you will have to take the full class again, and I'm not sure how you could hold it wrong? You just hold it and wipe it down. You follow whatever is bolded in the handbook

    sgarcia14 replied to GlitterFaerie's topic in Pre-Nursing
