Right, but she cannot start one without a doctor's order.


Uh, yeah...so? When will she be starting IV's on board?


Actually she can't, by law. IF she does, she's putting her license and
perhaps her neck on the legal line. She does so at her own risk.

Duh!!! Anyone who renders medical aid does so at legal risk, dummy!
Better to have an RN try if it comes to that. Good lord!

She's the director of the step-down unit (intermediate care, and
ICU-overflow) in the largest hospital in South Bend, IN. She's worked
as a
nurse in ICU, CCU, PICU, med-surg, orthopaedics, and has taught
pediatrics
in a nursing school. She's also worked as the director of nursing in
two
long-term care facilities. She's published many professional
periodical
articles and has co-authored two books on pediatric intensive care
nursing.


I see, so no ER training at the hospital or in the field. Keep her off
my boat!


Are you implying there is something wrong with Hatians? You're
quite a
racist and a bigot for a liberal.

No, I'm just not a politically correct toad like you to not admit the
reality of it. Are you aware that the Hatian schooling is basically on
a CCP level in many cases? Are you aware that these same "nurses" often
have very limited language skills and zero understanding of EC for
patients? Upper end hospitals use them in reduced capacity.

How many times do I have to say this: if a nurse performs such
procedures
in the field without medical approval, she does so at the peril of her
license.

I guess your will have to let you die then! Buh bye.
This is not about legality. It's about the ability to take positive
action in a medical emergency. We now ALL KNOW your wife will avoid
that lawsuit at the expense of others.
Good one, Maxi! Let's see you backpedal out of it!


She also took a special series of courses in burn care and
emergency treatment which was part of her deal in St. Francis, all part
of her Critical Care focus.


Wooo, wooo. Sounds as if she's had a fairly typical education.

Burn care is a specific area of nursing. Ask your wife. Nursing is now
finely broken down into specialized areas. Suzanne plans to study
several more before going for Nurse Practitioner.

See above. My daughter is also an RN (BSN, MSN) in an intensive
care unit
in a major Indianapolis hospital. My mother was an RN as well.

Wow. Suzanne is already talking about stepping up the ladder. Some
folks are happy with being a nurse and that's a fine choice.


She's been a nurse for less than 8 months and already she is expert in
emergency medicine, burn medicine and critical care.

Training is not experience.

She's at a top hospital, off student probation and with her own
patients. She's doing very well and has an eye towards the future.
Having her skills available is still a plus as I originally listed
them. She's part of our emergency inventory as it were!

Did you know that doctors and nurses have been sued for NOT taking
action? Did you know that doctors and nurses have been sued for taking
correct action? Did you know ANYONE can be sued after attempting
emergency care?

Maxi has no point and you don't even half 1/32 of his attempted point.
Bob C, remember when you were clever by playing both sides? Now you're
just another stooge here like Scotty and Doug. Still worse.....you're
not even good at it. Maybe you need a vacation?

Obviously Suzy hasn't trained you well enough. As a matter of LAW, a nurse
or doctor is required to stop and render assisstance. Wasn't that revealed
to Sluzy as part of her extensive training?

You know you are over the target when there is flak.

That would be 1/64, stupid.
