    Overweight

    adventure_rn replied to MCNERRA's topic in Health, Stress Management

    My hospital has an employees-only gym with tons of awesome free fitness classes. That all occur between 7a-8p. I'm flipped around most of the week: if they held classes at night, I'd look like Wonder...

    I can't comment about the ease or difficulty of attending FNP school with a peds background, but... In my region, I've met PNPs who are having trouble finding jobs at peds offices. The pediatricians...

    Classes to take while waiting

    adventure_rn replied to bridgegeisler's topic in General Students

    adventure_rn replied to msbossb's topic in General Students

    I'm considering buying this magnetic lanyard designed in use for bass fishing to connect my BIC 4-color pen to my nametag. It's like breakaway pants for your pen. (Wha-bam!) Good idea, bad

    Should I stay or should I go?

    adventure_rn replied to sugarwahine10's topic in General Nursing
