    It's ok.....I just want students to take an inch...give me a little...I will show them the mile. You are smart....and give good advice...let them work for it...that will help them the most. By seeing how they set the problem/case study up..... we can see where they are going wrong and correct them. Make them the best they can be.....;).

    Please check into what stephenandrews was saying because it is scientific and to the point and when we both finish school and practice nursing we will need to understand this concept. This is a scenerio that can and does happen in real life.

    I had a coworker before i started nursing school die from diabetic ketoacidosis. He told me his symptoms and i said go to the emergencies room but had I recognized that he was experiencing organ failure I would have called an ambulance.
