    P A S S E D!!

    Two patients one client-revisited

    Nurses don't save lives....WHAT?

    They can actually save a life while they are sitting in their office 10 miles away! When they are rounding their amazing capacity to save lives can occur in the 10 seconds they spend with each...

    How many days off are appropriate?
