    Braves won over the Mets 13 to 1. The sixth inning lasted for-EVER, but that was okay because that's when the Braves got in 7 or 8 runs. All's been blessedly quiet for the past 90 minutes

    I don’t report everything as a CNA … is it okay to let my nurse assess

    No Stars In My Eyes replied to Anxiousandafraid's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    One place I worked , resp rates were often charted as "WNL" (within normal limits) but I don't think that's accepted any more. Also some charted "reported low resp rate to RN." But I was told that if...
