   What the ANA thinks is irrelevant to me. They are constantly sending annoying emails about their political agenda, so I've learned to ignore them. The individual states and BON are the ones with the...

3. Veterinary Nurse

   enc123 replied to enc123's topic in General Nursing

   I don't think it minimizes what we do. I don't really care if they want to call themselves nurses. Hell, veterinarians call themselves DOCTORS all the time. Technically Vets are doctors. They become a...

   So yes this is a real posting and yes this is something i am actually going through. As for my writing, I am not writing a formal paper. I graduated 3 weeks ago and do not have to focus on a perfect...
