    Mexarican replied to MvbRn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  19. Men can't give complete baths?

    Mexarican replied to stelon's topic in General Nursing

    This can be discrimination...men can't give baths because of one or two or three complaints??? It doesn't matter!! IF one patient doesn't want to be bathed by a male then make the exception for that...
