   How do you adequately articulate to a doctor that you feel a patient's condition is deteriorating even though you don't quite have proof yet? My patient was having sustained ST in the high 140s-150s (over 2 hours). She was ordered metoprolol for HR ...

2. Confused at UTA

   LGJMan replied to BlackMurse1's topic in Texas (UTA)

   You should still be able to take the Algebra course, you will just need to make arrangements with your instructor to have the final proctored at a location near you. I am going to see if I will be able to use either a nearby community college or an ...

   I'm still in-processing at the HH agency. I've completed the pre-employment paperwork but it takes 10 days for the background check to go through. I will complete my orientation and begin shifts soon after the background check is complete. I defin...

9. What would you do?

   LGJMan posted a topic in Job Hunt
