:lol2: I am a graduate student and I think I googled the site a while back, joined but never participated. I am trying to finish a research utilization project (formal guidelines for the Option for Family Presence in the ED) so can't hang out here tonight. Soon looking forward to having more time on my hands. Primary clinical career for 35 years has been in the ED but now practice in the Education Department of my facilty. If anyone has any info, thoughts, or experiences with Family Presence to share, I'd sure appreciate them for future use. My other project is related to pharmacology education for nurses, or the lack there of. If you have any favorite clip art web sites or ppt backgrounds/templates, could use those too. I am also a smiley face/emoticon junky, would take those sites too. Have a good evening and I'll be back soon. :nurse: deb d. (I'm one of the oldies, though I cannot find my cap. Too close to retirement to buy another).
