    CPR Opinion

    Balder_LPN replied to Nurseboy1's topic in General Nursing

    Well, I did check out ACLS but I dont see that I will really get much benefit from that untill I have (or nearly) graduated. I dont think I am even allowed to take it at this point. But I think I will...

    Why pre assessment test a secret?

    Balder_LPN replied to janel's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    i dont know if this is why they are doing that to you, but here is something to think about: Our LPN Class will take a sample NCLEX at 5 points throughout school. Just as like a progress assessment,...

    attitudes of male and female patients towards male nursing students

    Balder_LPN replied to Jhanez_k2p's topic in Men in Nursing

    Drug addicted nurses

    Balder_LPN replied to ske0124's topic in Nurses Recovery

    What is your opinion and the BON ruling in your state?

    Balder_LPN replied to button2cute's topic in General Nursing

    Appropriate Action?

    Balder_LPN replied to mdmetz's topic in General Nursing
