    What do you do when a patient refuses treatment and wants to go home?

    Julius Seizure replied to xmilkncookiesx's topic in General Nursing

    Did the manager actually specifically say that the orientees are operating under the preceptors license? If so, they either misspoke or misunderstood. Or, did the manager simply said that the...
