    Why?

    Flare replied to MrNurse(x2)'s topic in School

    Why?

    Flare replied to MrNurse(x2)'s topic in School

    so she wants you to administer medications 25 minutes before school starts?? When do you get there? Is there a piece that would justify this like a long bus ride or something along those lines? I...

    Ridiculous things. This is a new one one me.

    Flare replied to Cattz's topic in School

    Ridiculous things. This is a new one one me.

    Flare replied to Cattz's topic in School

    Geez - that last dose isn't even 3 hours after the last. I would at the very least be calling the doctor's office and requesting a call back confirming administration times. What time does school...

    Flare replied to ohiobobcat's topic in School

    i'm sorry i haven't been on a lot - it's a long story. i teach bbp in multiple settings - unless the feces are bloody it's not considered a BBP bodily fluid any more than urine would be. A gross...
