I am an LPN that got my license last year. Am working in a clinic, so, there are many things I need to know, that clearly, I have not been exposed to. I am well aware that new grads are more naive, so, I give grace to that, as well as to nurses such as myself that have not done much time in med-surg. However, what do you think of an LPN that (seriously) asks some of the following questions; What color is blood? How many shots are needed for Hep B (especially if this person was an aide, and phlebotomist over the years)? Why should we use translators/interpeters?
Hey, maybe I need a shot in my head. I'd say this person is dangerous...

Vulcan hemoglobin is based on copper oxide, so their blood is green.
Although, that probably wasn't what she meant.
