    Onekidneynurse replied to heygurlhey's topic in Dialysis, Renal, Urology

    The problem with delaying an acute treatment is that you don't know what's at the ED door. Some days we go to plan Z. That's the nature of acutes. Sometimes we don't go to lunch until 1600. And we...

    Onekidneynurse replied to HM2VikingRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Onekidneynurse replied to HM2VikingRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Onekidneynurse replied to heygurlhey's topic in Dialysis, Renal, Urology
