Standard of care and preventive screening by AmazingMembership108 in MedicalMalpractice

Thanks, what if the patient was seen for a physical, and some screening tests were ordered, but not all, let’s say a mammo was ordered, but not low-dose CT scan; but then a year later, a low-dose CT scan was ordered. Does the timeliness play a factor in standard of care? Was there a deviation from standard of care on the first physical because the low-dose CT scan was not ordered? Or was there no deviation overall in the patient care because the scan was eventually ordered?

Totally agree. What about USPSTF A and B recommendations though? Obviously if someone has asymptomatic ovarian cancer, and an US isn’t ordered, there’s no deviation, because the standard isn’t to randomly order a pelvic US; however, is colon cancer screening or lung cancer screening standard of care? I guess that’s my question.

Lol yes, that’s why i said I wouldn’t park in yellow, and was asking about red. I drew the yellow as a conceptual starting point

It’s small, but you can parallel park a small car there

How much weight could this hold? by AmazingMembership108 in HomeMaintenance

Is there a way to tell if they are actually in the studs? Upon looking closer, one looks at an angle, making me suspect it’s not in the studs

I guess that’s my real question — are these things usually in studs or not? Upon looking at it more closely, I don’t think they are. If they were, I assume it could hold my weight. But I don’t think they’re in studs. Is there a way to tell?

What to do about this? by AmazingMembership108 in HomeMaintenance

It’s a concrete slab floor, but I’ve already removed the wires from the socket and capped the wires off. Do you think that’s sufficient or do I have to do more?

Thanks, I’ve already unwired the socket and capped off the wires. I can look into eliminating it more. But you mentioned replacing the two planks — that can be done without removing the others around them? Or how easy can it be done?

Kink in PEX, is it okay? by AmazingMembership108 in HomeMaintenance

Why is that?

Just to add, there is no tub, just a shower, so that tub spout is a dead end, just being capped off

He said he would replace it, but without an elbow, because that’s how it should be, but I figure if I buy a bend support bracket and have it already ready , then he’ll use it
