    All I want for Christmas is... (the school nurse list)

    KeeperOfTheIceRN replied to LikeTheDeadSea's topic in School

    Well this is a brilliant idea!! I'd totally be on board for that. To be able to offer missing vaccinations immediately?! Holy moly. GAME.

    What brought you to where you are now?

    KeeperOfTheIceRN replied to MHDNURSE's topic in School

    I had HUGE dreams of being a doctor when I was way younger. That eventually changed to CRNA, then that boiled down to nursing. I tried college right out of high school but had culture shock, I...
