   mpolice replied to rehab nurse's topic in Disabilities

   Hoozdo, I am sorry to hear that it didn't work for your husband. I wonder why. Was the herniation too serious? Some of the patients said it wasn't covered on insurance and then others said their insurance covered a percentage. But with an 86% suc...

   For any nurses out there with herniated discs - have you heard of the new spinal decompression table? It's like a computerized traction that is supposed to alleviate the herniation and prevent surgery. I urge anyone with a herniation to check it ou...

   Has anyone out there taken any RN to BSN online courses at Deaconess? I'm starting (at Chamberlain) in the fall and I don't know if I can handle 2 classes, along with 40+ hrs of work. I'm wondering about the level of difficulty and involvement. Wh...
