    mrr5745 posted a topic in General Nursing

  2. Non-solicitation agreement

    mrr5745 replied to mrr5745's topic in General Nursing

    mrr5745 replied to Isitpossible's topic in Nurse Management

    What happens when the home health pt codes and it's just you and your black bag? No code team, No doctors, No experienced nurses around to help. Sure, you could call 911, but while waiting for the...

    mrr5745 replied to orangepink's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    mrr5745 replied to BEBE1MEE's topic in General Nursing

    My guess is the prelimary test for Hep C is positive, but they don't have the confirmatory test back yet? His EIA could ​be a false positive d/t the other issues he has with his liver. I'll keep you...
