Welcome to AN! The largest online nursing community.

We are happy to help with homework here but we will not do it for you........part of becoming a good nurse is about having good research and investigational skills so you can develop those "critical" thinking skills that are so important to nursing, especially if you are planning to be a CRNA.

Good Luck in school

Let me google that for you

well I can tell you he is the reason Listerine got its name.

so, lucygarcia94 (consider a more anonymizing handle), what did you learn about joseph lister?

Check Wikipedia as well.

if you use wikipedia for anything at all, be sure that you read the references in the footnotes to be sure they say what you think they do.

never cite wikipedia itself as a definitive source for your papers or your faculty will eat you alive. it can be a good source of other references, though, and you will have to read them to be sure, and then you can cite them.

Thank you GrnTea, did not even know that.

Lucygarcia - it engenders the good will of the community when you ask for advice and return in a timely manner to respond even if some of them don't agree with your approach. I mention this just in case you choose to post here again.

Professionalgirl - agree with Grn Tea wikipedia is regarded by many as the Cheetos of research but the footnotes and references are very helpful all in one place like that!
