   How many times do I have to tell you to warm your hands before touching a patient?!

2. Best Cell Phone for Practitioners

   Comis replied to lemur87's topic in NP

   I'm a huge fan of the Kyocera Torque for Sprint. It's fully water and dust-proof, so if you get something gross all over it, you can literally dunk it in your sink and wash it with soap and water. Plus, it's mil-spec ruggedized so you don't have to...

3. Are people shocked you're still a bloke outside of work?

   Comis replied to CNDave's topic in Men

   Get over it, and/or get used to it. You are a man in the nursing field. You do all sorts of manly stuff in your off time. And/or you don't. Either way, please don't feel like you need to justify your existence to the people around you. You are do...

7. Nurses can't be punished for violating HIPAA

   Comis replied to MikeyBSN's topic in HIPAA

   What?!? Your thread title is "Nurses can't be punished for violating HIPAA", but you admitted in your original post that nurses definitely can be punished for violating HIPAA. You know as well as I do that most nurses reading this won't care at al...

8. Has anyone taken A&P and Microbiology in the same semester????

   Comis replied to CNAJessi's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Yup, I agree with just about everything that's been said. I did A&P II and Microbiology together over a summer 10-week semester, and felt that they went well together. It was definitely more work than a normal semester, but if you know that goi...
