    From medical staff to nursing

    Jedrnurse replied to Jules A's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Devil's advocate question: Would new NPs be "more in tune" with what they didn't know (and maybe the fact that they were paying for a crap education) if they had a decent amount of clinical experience...

    Nursing: What it is not

    Jedrnurse replied to newnursingstudent19's topic in General Nursing

    When do you hold insulin if no parameters?

    Jedrnurse replied to mzsuccess's topic in General Nursing

    Is the novolog scaled/dosed to the amount of carbs he's eating? If it is, the easy answer is to hold it if he's not eating. Is he on a steady-state/once a day insulin as well? It still might be a good...
