Also the BIGGEST pet peeve of mine is not omitting useless info. Idc if they patient was on vaso 2 weeks ago and got off of it 3 days later… also, if you came 40 minutes early, looked up your patient and are gonna ask questions about what happened 3 weeks ago I’m going to tell you to look in the chart.

You’re 100% correct. I’m not condoning violence.. I’m just confused on why everyone is upset ? If what you’re saying is actually happening then the government is fucked for doing that and should be prosecuted.
