Collective "punishments" like the one described are not caused by a few irresponsible people using their cellphones rudely, but rather by a lazy, and sneering culture in the management. Levin.

True, this happened to us on a couple of placements. Cheers, Levin

RE: SC/IM I was thinking about this earlier. In light of what SD said, I think it's probably because Hydroxy-cobalamin would not be very lipid soluable. So giving it SC wouldn't seem to make much sense. Wheras Cyano-cobalamin probably is more lipid ...

Hydroxy-Cobalamin Chloride is IM Only(with rare exceptions). There is another variant called Cyanocobalamin. I don't know if you can give that SC. Do you know which variant you use SD? IV B-12 can cause some quite nasty reactions. To the best of my ...

Yeah I've always used them. Levin

It could just be a local variance, I only have data for Australia but the rates vary between the range 60/40(M/F) and 40/60(M/F) over the years. Levin

There fixed it for you Levin P.S. Good luck with the Job hunting.

Also the fact that we have the subsidised education and access to nursing journals, i think has benefits for patients and the wider health system as well. Levin

Well I find my union dues very modest. For them I get. * Professional indemnity insurance. * Free access to nursing journals online. * A nursing library. * Workcover top up insurance. * Subsidised education and training. * Can bank with the ...

Grace Oz, Rudd was pretty upfront about his intentions. This was from February last year. http://www.news.com.au/dailytelegraph/story/0,22049,21269514-5001028,00.html Levin P.S. Personally I think we should get out of Afghanistan as well, unless some...

Howard looks like he has lost his seat. Well he did say he wanted to make history. Only the second PrimeMinister EVER to lose his seat while still PM. Levin

Does your software have progress notes? If so then you could document the reason the drugs were scanned late in them. Regards, Levin

It's probably lupus P.S. very common, happens to med students as well. Regards, Levin

You pinch the skin with a subcutaneous injection to increase the size of the lipid layer. Makes it less likely that the injection goes into a muscle, Letting the pinch go before you inject would be defeating the purpose of doing.it. Cheers, Levin

OK. That worries me a little bit, because the forearm has 2 bones. And all (well most) of the important stuff, gets run down between them, veins, arteries, nerves etc. Which would make it rather hard for the torniquet to compress them. Unlike the up...

I'm glad it worked out so well. :) Well done. Levin

You really have to understand the subculture. If you want to deal with it. Shelters are often not safe places. Many have serious violance issues, that goes for womens and youth shelters as well. Odds are you treat more homeless people than you realis...

Found something official on all this. Documents from the Ministry of Health and the Prime Ministers office. http://www.pm.gov.au/media/Release/2007/Media_Release24555.cfm Cliff Notes: So now it's changed again, public hospitals can get it too. Bec...

Grace I am not, nor do I think others here are, dissing hospital trained nurses. Even if I believed hospital training was the way to go for the future, (which I don't think it is). I would still oppose this governments plan. This topic isn't suppos...

One of the big issues I see here, is that all this experience will be very one dimensional. Working in one place, for 18 months would be nowhere near as good as working in 4 areas for 3 months each would be. Working for 18 months in an Age care centr...
