    ixchel replied to kimdav's topic in Patient Medications

    Asking Former Preceptor for Some Space

    ixchel replied to betterinthesun's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    ixchel replied to roser13's topic in General Nursing

    We got a postpartum hemorrhage on my stepdown unit and they wouldn't LET us check her fundus. I can't imagine that inspires a whole lot of confidence in a patient who doesn't understand how nursing...
