Whatever the case, leave your Nursing Terminology Mashup and a brief explanation of it in the comments below and you’ll be entered to win a 3M™ Littmann® Cardiology IV stethoscope!
   
   Winner will be announced May 13, 2016. Be creative. Be unique.

    Walkey-talkey: when a patient is ambulatory, walking around the nurses station and chatting it up with other patients, families, nurses and other stuff. As a case manager, if you're walkey-talkey, time to phone the doc for a T. O. , discharge home.
