- Does/Can an RN give anesthetics before procedures such as skin biopsy, laser surgery,
I am an RN in a Mohs surgery clinic. I administer local anesthetic for surgical procedures. We mostly use 1% Lidocaine with epi , buffered of course.- Calling yourself a "nurse"
I worked as an Medical Assistant for 13 years before I became an RN. Patients would call me "the nurse" all the time. I always made it a point to let them know that I was an MA and not an RN. I have always had respect for the Nursing profession. I sometimes get defensive when one of the office MA's will not correct a patient when they call them the "nurse". They really don't have a clue about the education and clinicals required for the position! I know, have been there and there is no comparison in schooling! Sorry for the RANT!- Darn Chemistry Pre-req's
