To learn new things, ask questions and get NO ******** answers from those in the field. I'm a 2nd yr student, 45 and while I LOVE this field, I want to be REALISTIC about my expectations haha.

Specializes in Hospice, corrections, psychiatry, rehab, LTC.

My reason for coming here is twofold - to learn and to teach. I learn new things all the time from reading what my colleagues say. I also have experience that may benefit some who are struggling, and I try to give them help and honest answers.

To which post are you replying? When replying, all posts go to the last page; they do not go immediately after the post. It helps to quote rather than to reply.

Since I'm not an English spoken nurse, I honestly love to see and learn many brilliant expression of experienced nurses in discussing subjects or matters that I'm interested in. I reply sometimes, expecting anyone will respond accordingly if my English isn't appropriate to the context being discussed.

Other than that, I love nursing as it's been my line of work for around 35 years. ;)
