    What % of women don't know basics of female anatomy?

    Emergent replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    I am personally, also, uncomfortable with discussing intimate body parts (obviously, since I called it pee hole and baby hole, lol). I remember in 7th grade during our first sex ed class, giggling too...

    Made a big med error as a student... i'm devastated.

    Emergent replied to FuturePN's topic in General Students

    I'm a little puzzled as to why a nursing instructor thinks giving apple juice the appropriate remedy for too much lantus? That actually shows a disturbing lack of knowledge on her part. Lantus is...

    Small office....I hate it

    Emergent replied to szccdw's topic in Ambulatory Care, Clinic

    Emergent replied to Cougar1113's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    What do you think, can a family member self-identify as an RN on Facebook and then give a negative opinion as to the care given? I heard about the story concerning the Canadian nurse who posted on...
