    studentnurse3 replied to dddduncan's topic in Colorado Nursing

  16. Acceptance letters from FRCC?

    studentnurse3 replied to Melina's topic in Colorado Nursing

    That's not necessarily true, I have a friend who has been a nurse for 12 years and she got Cs in her science courses and she did perfectly fine in school. The Cs she received did not hurt her one bit....

    studentnurse3 replied to studentnurse3's topic in General Nursing

    How long did you work the 3-11 shift? I think I would have quit as well if my daughter or sons said that. I would feel a lot of guilt. Believe me, that thought, along with many other thoughts...
