    IV Drip Rate Help

    Mavrick replied to tiffanyleto's topic in General Students

    As would anyone. You prof is not making herself clear. When she does, let us know. I, for one, am becoming more disillusioned with the quality of these so-called nursing instructors. A recent...

    IV Drip Rate Help

    Mavrick replied to tiffanyleto's topic in General Students

    Lose your license for administering a PRN med without a pain scale?

    Mavrick replied to Cola89's topic in General Nursing

    That's exactly what I said. One person rated the pain a "4" and another person rated the pain an "8". Then there are the folks who game the system and don't really answer the pain level question....
