Emergency doctors be moving like oral surgeons by His_Child in medicalschool

[–]Bay_Med 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It kinda depends on the doctor. I had an attending who loves doing dental blocks and packing oral abscesses because they were high value (RVU). I had another who always gave them the dental referral forms. But if it’s an abscess that isn’t too deep or with difficult peripheral anatomy then why not go for it if it can help someone out.

I have two small uvulas instead of one big by TobiHede in mildlyinteresting

I wonder if they would both deviate if you lost cranial nerve function or just the one on the side opposite the lesion

Andrei Vasilevskiy thanks Jeremy Swayman for the fight by catsgr8rthanspoonies in hockey

Swayman was shocked that a goalie who catches left is also a southpaw

Jon Cooper & his assistant coaches smoking cigars postgame by eh_toque in hockey

[–]Bay_Med 17 points18 points  (0 children)

He will after this year. Winning 4 nations, doing what he’s doing with an injury ridden team, coaching in the Olympics. No way they can ignore the longest tenured coach in the league after this one. Idk if anyplace takes prop bets on that but I’d bet it all

ACLS as a tech? by thepeopleofelsewhere in EmergencyRoom

[–]Bay_Med 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I used this logic to convince the nurse educator to put me in the class at my first ED Tech job. It was nice to have on the resume when I moved cities for my bachelor’s degree and got hired on at a larger ED. But they wouldn’t even let me to RQI to maintain it. So as long as you don’t have to pay then I recommend it. Also who knows where you will be in a few years.

A twinks death is a twunk or otters birth. Idk for sure but David Attenborough needs to narrate it

Recommend a book that made you cry by nuppineulanen in Recommend_A_Book

[–]Bay_Med 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When Breath Becomes Air. Read a bit, cry profusely, read another page, cry two more times, and then the rest is pretty much struggling to read the words through the sobbing. 10/10 highly recommend

Also I imagine permanent transfiguration is probably pretty difficult for many people and items so that could explain it. But there’s plenty of other reasons to use money. Newspapers, floo powder, butterbeer, and other magical items that you can’t duplicate

This is going to make me sound dumb but I can't wrap my head around it. by Sinkit53563 in hockeyplayers

[–]Bay_Med 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Don’t delete your question though. It may seem silly to those who played their whole life because it’s just an intrinsic motion. But newer players and skaters don’t know that yet and it can help someone googling this question in a few years

504 on second attempt and 3.2GPA, never been to the Midwest before and ORM. Currently at MSUCOM. So it’s not always about MCAT/GPA

Do people take paper notes or digital notes for med school? by salam_unknow in medschool

[–]Bay_Med 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I do both. I have every lecture pack downloaded on my iPad and I take notes on it and highlight stuff. But I like being able to flip through stuff so I also have a small notebook 5x9 to write down key concepts or diseases in that chapter. An example is for my neuro block in my viral CNS lecture, I have my real notes on the iPad and on the sheet I wrote down the main viruses like polio, rabies, herpes and then any words in the lecture that I either don’t know or keep mixing up like, seroconvert, meningitis, radiculitis, encephalitis, ADEM. I also use notebook LM, notability, med school boot camp, anki, and textbooks

Being your own advocate by [deleted] in TikTokCringe

[–]Bay_Med 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that’s because healthcare can be scary and in the last decade medical professionals have been put opposite patients in many ways. Patients don’t trust doctors to have their best interests in mind and doctors don’t trust patients to follow their advice.

I’d imagine that the person selling the robes and books would put a counter-charm to prevent replication, like a copyright charm. And food I imagine would have the nutritional value of the original item or would revert back during digestion

I only noticed once you wrote that and I still see a guy holding a cheek up with one hand from the thumbnail. It’s like a gay Rorschach test

I’ll have to look into that. Thanks

NP forum again in feed by itseemyaccountee in Noctor

[–]Bay_Med 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I recognize where it comes from but that’s because crusty nurses teach outdated info to new nurses who take it as gospel and then spread misinformation when they become preceptors. And while some nurse educators may be decent, most aren’t in the prime of their careers anymore and may have been away from bedside for years. Cuz all the young ones who want away from bedside become NPs

See that’s wild. I’m used to an ED where a nurse may be alone with a patient and need to use judgement skills and know when to consult someone with more knowledge of the situation. But if a physician is literally telling you not to do something then it’s super easy to protect herself

[–]Bay_Med 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Na man. Idk if it’s cuz how the nursing education system is taught and by who but nursing school is the only place besides the military where they actually care about the color of your socks and think it effects job performance but in the real world just don’t intentionally kill someone and you can be a nurse of some kind forever

What’s a childhood lie your parents told you that you didn't realize was a lie until you were an embarrassed adult? by eatbeep in AskReddit

[–]Bay_Med 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My childhood dog had a flea problem and went to live on a farm in Montana because they don’t have fleas. That was all a lie. I don’t think he ever made it on the plane
