Sorry sir, I realize my question was a bit vague. I probably shouldn't being posting when I have had less than 4 hours of sleep :) I was watching a video my recruiter gave me, and on it was a Naval...
Question for the current or former military nurses; Is it true that in the military the scope of practice for nurses is much greater than in the civilian world? If so, what sort of things are nurses...
