As of right now, I have a NICU rotation set for later this year in a Level IV. I previously worked in a Level III NICU as a PCA, and was wondering if anyone who’s done a rotation or precepted in the NICU would recommend getting my NRP certification for it? I’m not sure how hands on the rotation will be but would like to be as prepared as possible :) Thanks ..read more

So I in a group of NRCME for DOT exams It has amazed me to no end what some of the questions Chiro's are coming up with. Stuff that is basic pharm or pathophys they are stumped on.

BTW I refer to chiro all the time and even go to one myself so I am not against them, just amazed at the fact they are allowed to certify DOT drivers wh ..read more
