  4. Redefining "Abuse"

    Hi CapeCodMermaid, Actually, intent is not a requirement for abuse outside of legal situations. The only time intent matters is if you take an abuse case to court, the courts must prove "criminal...
  5. How to properly wash & disinfect scrubs??!

    Yeah, it sounded weird to me at first too! But it turns out MRSA and VRE are sensitive to it,.which are the bacteria that concern me the most. It's also cheap and readily available. It's good for...

    I checked my mailbox today and nothing . But this is only the 4th week so I am still anxiously waiting. Praying that good news is on its way!
  25. Hey everyone! I am curious about something. Has anyone done a non-nursing masters (with the obvious exclusion of an MBA which is completely focused on admin) degree? If so, in what field and what is...
