Doctors do physical exams, Nurses should be able to do the following.

Check all vitals including blood pressure, temperature (rectally & orally) blood/oxygen level, and heart rate.

Be able to draw blood when needed, and know all the in's and out's of an IV system.

Change bedpans, do sponge baths, clean up vomit, stool, urine, and blood using the correct method to avoid contamination

Morris Said:

Please someone give me list of LLMDs (lyme literate medical doctors) in washington?

We Answered:

I do not have a list however if you call your local hospital they will be able to refer you to appropriate LLMD.

Alternatively you could google search it. Your GP will also be able to help.

Paula Said:

Is there a list of hospitals and doctors clinics that do NOT have new resident doctors in training?

We Answered:

I know what you mean about those residents. I've been having the same problem. I guess the only way that we can find out if the residents are seeing patients where we would like to see a doctor is to call around and ask before making a doctor's appointment.

Wade Said:

lgbt: I went to the doctor, another bad day?

We Answered:

Omg, me too!

Awesome, we can be diabetes buddies!

But seriously, don't worry about it too much. It's not the biggest deal in the world, it takes some getting used to but after a while you pretty much forget it's there. My best piece of advice is to be careful with alcohol, that's gotten me into trouble a few times. And don't skip meals, even if you're not hungry...
