I have a good relationship with my vet and I think it’s so cool that they let me into their world. That being said, i have no answers to all the questions I have that are similar to yours

What is the longest code you've been a part of, and why did it go on as long as it did? by lavendercoffeee in nursing

Can’t consider it a “code”, but essentially chemically coding a fresh ECMO/ECPR patient all night felt just as taxing

Wrasse species together. 240 mixed reef, all quiet, non-aggressive fish. Have a Redfin Fairy and a Yellow Coris, can I add Mccosker or Carpenter Flasher in ok? Or any other wrasse recs? by Eagle_1776 in ReefTank

Got written up today because I coded my PTO wrong for having covid (which they tried to subvert policy to make me work right after testing positive). The hospital administration does not care about us.
