I am considering nursing, not fully dedicated to it. i find it interesting though it is only one of the paths I could choose.
With th that being said, I have a question on the philosophy of nursing in practical usage.
The scenario is; you are in the field, and someone is cut very badly, the doctor tells you to apply pressure for bleeding. It's a bleed from something vital. Do you, as the nurse:
A: ask the doctor where to apply pressure, and then know where to apply it?
B: have to know where to apply pressure, and apply it?
This question may seem out there, but I feel as though, as someone only considering nursing as a career path, it's something I feel I need to know.
thanks,
Adam
