Is your care plan in need of rescue?
You're in luck!
There are nurses who have been around for a long time willing to help you clinically reason about your patient.
Here are the rules:
1. Since no one plans care in a fact-free zone make double sure you've done thorough assessment, because the nurse with whom you correspond may need the information to help you.
2. If we did the work for you we'd get double secret detention and lose our "nurse educator club" membership card. Be prepared for a Socratic dialogue when you contact us.
3. Make sure you've read through the relevant sections of this website... because if you do, you might be able to
un-
confuse yourself.
4. And most importantly...
Your instructor is
ALWAYS RIGHT!
This website is aimed at helping you reason. But your instructor is in the trenches with you, knows what classroom content and clinical experiences you have had, and your instructor knows what the learning objectives for this assignment are.
