A puzzling dosage calc. question.
0.5l (0.5 liter) is 500 ml. so, 500 ml infusion over 2 hours would be 250 ml/hour that is what i thought, but the book says the answer is 87.5 ml/hr. now tell me how they came up with that answer, because i sure cannot find it. perhaps it is just a misprint.

A puzzling dosage calc. question.
Hello everyone, I'm due for my dosage exam tomorrow morning and have one practice problem that seems to stump me. Doctor's Order: 0.5L of NS to infuse over 2 hrs. I thought that I would need the 1000mL = 1L, but when I plug that in the answer is still wrong. We have 75 questions and 1 hour 20 minutes to complete; so far I can beat the time with 33 minutes left and missed only 3. :pumpiron: I'd really like to know how to work this problem just in case there is one just like it on the exam. A big thanks to anyone who helps me

Can someone please help me?
{Do nurses have 8, 10, 12 hour accountability? A: You are accountable for what you have done until the statute of limitation expires. Consult an attorney! Also, your state's Nurse Practice Act should be consulted for what constitues "abandonment."} In the above, underlined sentence, what is usually the norm for the statute of limitation? I know it varies with facility, but I need a number. Thanks Yosemite for helping me out.

Can someone please help me?
I have been working on a mock interview all week and it is based on the degree that I have chosen, (Nursing). So far I have the employer questions and answers, now I have come to the part where I the employee ask questions. I've been waiting for a hospital staff member to call me back, unfortunately, she has not done so. Since the majority of nurses here work in a hospital and have been through an interview similar to this, I thought someone would know there hospital good enough to answer the questions. I need this completed tonight so I can focus on my test for Tuesday. Can anyone help me by answering the following questions. I know it is a lot, but it would help me out tremendously. Here are the questions if anyone can help: What support is available such as (Iv team, code team, EKG tech, etc)? What does orientation include and how long is it? Will I receive full salary during orientation? Where are new graduates often assigned? How much individual responsibility or autonomy do nurses have on nursing procedures? Do nurses have 8, 10, 12 hour accountability? Is there financial compensation available for the NCLEX application or NCLEX review? Is there a career ladder? What is the pay difference at each step? Is there a nursing library? How many weekends a month do most nurses work? What measurments are taken when a unit is short-staffed?

Interview Questions?
Thanks for the questions. With a question like this, "Tell me about a time when you had to work on a team; Tell me about a time when you had to deal with a negative attitude" do I give any work environment or am I suppose to stay within my field? (I have not worked in any medical field yet)

Interview Questions?
Hello Ladies and Gentlemen, After reading through some of these forums I know you ladies/gents are knowledgable so I would like to ask for you help. I'm having to create a mock interview for my career field, and I have yet to complete my degree as a Registered Nurse. Can anyone give me a good list of questions that an interviewer will or could ask me when I go to this type of job interview? I don't want the answers, I need to be able to answer those on my own. Your help would be so appreciated.
