    anticoagulationurse replied to John123's topic in Texas Nursing

    anticoagulationurse replied to Medic04's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I think it's a good one. Some goals are measured by subjective statements (like pain and comfort). I like the double whammy of interventions you've got. While providing oral care you'd be assessing...
