   What I was taught in school was that you don't give what you didn't prepare or you don't draw up and let someone else give it for you. And other questions include "why do you order labs before the doctor even sees the patient (such as RSV or flu test...

   They expected me to work by myself after 4 wks of training. And yeah i don't agree with preparing the vaccines before the doctor even leaves the pt room but that's how they trained me to do it because if I waited it'll take too much time. And they fi...

   There is no nurses there only me. And that's exactly what I think, that if I do triage there and have to report to the MA, I'm risking my license there. I'm supposed to have a meeting with the bosses (which are pediatricians) to see I've gotten "fast...
