    Jedrnurse replied to Calbrunette's topic in General Nursing

    The only way to gracefully quit is to do it according to the facility's policy and without overly criticizing things on the way out. If the job is really bothering you that much I honestly don't think...

    Jedrnurse replied to RNashley86's topic in School

    This common lack of training/orientation is just one of the reasons why it frosts my cornflakes when many nurses glibly suggest "school nursing" as an alternative to new grads who are crashing and...
