    Nurses forced to work as aides

    ...but this is where you are wrong. Just because you are doing aide work doesn't mean you can take off your RN hat. The BON will hold you accountable to your highest level of training. That means if...

    Off duty RN scope of practice on an airplane.

    You can't compare transport nursing to commercial flights. Although air transport service is regulated by the FAA, rules on commercial airplanes are still federally regulated. Use common sense and...
  14. I would wager that the reason behind it is the off chance the placenta doesn't deliver. It happens. Not good for Mom But no sense in both of them going

    Off duty RN scope of practice on an airplane.

    Did I screw myself out of this job??

    Wow...thank you for posting this because I have never heard of this, but it just goes to show how fast technology is moving. What they should have done is called the reference to make sure they...
