Wow--I want to thank each of you for replying to my post, and for giving me some really great tips. I appreciate it! The computer is used for MAR and for charting, so it's got to be with me at all times. I wish I could somehow combine the med cart...

Thank you so much for your reply--I really appreciate it. I'm going to hold onto those names!! Nancy

Hello, everyone. I have an unusual request, and am hoping some of you will respond. My mom is moving from NY to NJ, so she needs to find a good cardiologist. She had an MI 6 years ago, and her recent persantine stress test was not good. I am unbe...
