   I would always wear gloves when coming in physical contact with any patient. You should also change gloves when moving from patient to patient. Lack of supplies is a problem in healthcare, whoever is in charge really needs to be aware of the potenti...

10. Vaping in School

    CCStacey replied to peacockblue's topic in School
