14. Is everything really the nurses fault?

    al2phoenix replied to jerrylundergard's topic in General Nursing

    No, it's not always the nurses' fault. Nurses and doctors have their own jurisdiction. Doctors do the diagnosis, and the orders. Nurses do the assists, the carrying out of orders, and the taking care...

15. What is the most professional way to quit a job?

    al2phoenix replied to TigerGalLE's topic in General Nursing
