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

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

    Anorexia

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

    Double Briefing

    MrNurse(x2) replied to CuriousCNA's topic in General Nursing

    That is highly optimistic on that salesman's (that is truly what a rep is) product. I have personally tested briefs and have found the Abena's holding 3 quarts compared to Depends, a little over a...
