My friends sister attended a two day cna course with me and she is now the "nurse" for a middle school with no RN or Lpn on site and allowed to administer medications. I think they labeled her a...

That could be entirely possible that she is a health assistant or UAP. And you are correct, I am just going off of information that her brother has told me. He is the one that told me her name badge...

... Is that they don't round. 0.1 point away from an A this semester. I don't know if I should celebrate for all the hard work to earn that B+ or be annoyed that I'm so close yet so far away from that...
I'm reading a chapter in my book about F&E, and even ordered fluid and electrolytes made easy and the fluid & electrolytes demystified book, but it seems like all of the symptoms of K, ca, mg,...
