    I love the knowledge of human biology & the combination of technology and medication being compassionately applied to those in
  13. I can't help but wonder if experience and exposure play a big role in one's comfort in cleaning poop, urine, and vomit. I have to assume that the first few times one does this--either as a CNA, LPN,...
