    I know that the FDA would still be involved but the standards for a "dietary supplement" are a lot less stringent then for a drug. I am pretty sure you only have to show that a dietary sup. isn't...

    fronkey bean replied to HM2VikingRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    what was the difference in the service provided though? if the pvt service ran more tests or gave more referals there might be a reason for the cost difference. i'm not necessarily saying the extra...

  8. Have you ever heard of this? UGH!!!!

    fronkey bean replied to Heloisea3's topic in General Nursing

    no as long as no one made a claim that it cured a medical condition. That is how herbal remedies escape having to get FDA approval, by claiming to be a dietary supplement and not a

    fronkey bean replied to HM2VikingRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Economics is not my strong suit. Are you saying that they would want payment from gov't for the services they pay for? And if the gov't would have paid the same amt anyway, what's the problem

    fronkey bean replied to fleur-de-lis's topic in General Nursing

    When the Pyxis med cabinets first came out I made the biggest med error I have ever made. Was pullingout meds for pt A, had checked the MAR and everything was right. Just as I was going to go give...

    fronkey bean replied to HM2VikingRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I just don't understand why pvt. insurers would be prohibited except for non-necessary proceedures. I mean, they may not be needed but I don't see why they should be

  17. "The Jesus Factor"

    fronkey bean replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

    Absolutely. Much of the time when a pt brings up one of the above subjects, it is in the context of saying what they believe. Sometimes they just want to talk to someone about anything and it would...

    fronkey bean replied to HM2VikingRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I know somebody addressed this earlier in the thread but I can't find it. Why are pvt insurers banned? It seems to me that if someone didn't want to use the hr676 system why not give them that

    Sorry, I meant to put a smiley on that comment. I was being facetious. I think chaplains are great and my institution has a question on the admission form that asks religious preference and if they...

    But if you ask them if they want to see the chaplain, aren't you making a judgement that they need a

  23. "The Jesus Factor"

    fronkey bean replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

    Did they ask your permission to speak first? I think the concensus has been to get permission to speak first, so if you gave them permission then it is the "polite" thing to listen. If they didn't...

    fronkey bean replied to mycatmax's topic in General Nursing

    Too true. When I worked day shift on a cardiac unit, the shift may have ended at 7:15 pm but the paper work usually went on until 8 P or so. I had a really great day once and got home at 7:30 and my...

    fronkey bean replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

    You're right OP didn't say the pt had inquired. She also didn't say the pt had not inquired. Truth is she doesn't know b/c she wasn/t in the room. Sincerely believing I know the way to heaven doesn't...
