   sunnymarie4 replied to workingforskies's topic in General Nursing

   I thought that was the reason for the ETOH level being taken, to find out if that was the cause of the accident. It is illegal to drink and drive and she was lucky she only injured herself. As a nurse and person that drives and has family that driv...

   sunnymarie4 replied to indigo girl's topic in General Nursing
