Hi to everyone,

I work in agecare as a nusre (AIN) that is what we call Assistanting In Nursing. I am doing the medication and I was given some work to do. What I am after is a wed site that can help me. This what I am after : Ung L knee nocte. What this is what the doctor's right to tell RN's what dthe dosage is. If anyone can help me it would be very good.

Thankyou

I do not understand your post.

Specializes in ob/gyn med /surg.

i am having a hard time understanding your post.. could you clarify what you are saying? i am a RN , but i don't know what you mean by dr's having the right to tell RN's the dosages? dr's have the right to tell anyone who is taking the med, or giving the med the dosages , what is going on... i am not sure what a AIN is.. that is not a nurse a nurse is a RN or LPN.. are you in the US? is a AIN a nurse in another country? a nursing assistant in the US is not a nurse ...

I agree with the others, not quite sure what you're after here. Are you passing meds right now? If you're trying to understand what the directions are, the doctor wrote: "ointment to left knee at night".

What this is what the doctor's right

>I thing you meant to type "write"

to tell RN's what the dosage is. If anyone can help me it would be very good.

Hope that helps, or at least points you in the right, I mean, correct direction :chuckle.

As others stated, your post is not clear, but I think the order is to apply ointment (ung) to left knee at night. Somewhere in my brain I recall "ung" being a term for ointment.
