   Similar question - Does anyone know how to take liquid fabric softener stains out of their scrubs (that they wash after each shift)? Currently my scrubs look like a blue ball point pen exploded on...

7. Does the shift matter, experience-wise? - New CNA

   Peachez1 replied to NurseyNurseNursey's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA
