    MRSA Concerns

    Strange question, but I need to ask

    When someone is sick in my house it has a very distinct smell. I always clean the house from top to bottom after one of us has been sick and I air the house out to get rid of the odor. Also, have you...

    Nclex

    I would venture to say that at least 95% of nclex takers felt like they failed. It is a long and agonizing wait and I feel for you. I am sure you passed. 85% pass on their first try. So look at it...

    Any final words of wisdom?
