in unsafe environments because it can prevent injuries.
,Between 5 and 7 mins sees the physician in a 24 hour period. The nurse is

Are they cognitive - something to put something together to create

Home safety - throw rugs biggest injury factor or rug runners those rugs
that are not taken down can cause older people to fall and have a hip
injury. The artery in the hip can break the hollow organ to empty its

,blood will pool and clot can go to lungs and cause pulmonary blood clot.
The vessels will get smaller and will kill the heart muscle. go to coronary

amount of radiation of 100 x ray. As a nurse you must protect yourself also
because it changes the DNA sequence change in cellular seq. Make sure
the patient is getting safety protocols.
Nurses are exposed to radiation a little bit each time. If it's a child only xray
if the child starts to show neurological decline. Chances are the child could
have a concussion, confront my physical assessment same result whether

CORRECT ANSWER-Yes, it can cause cancer. Repeated CAT scans
increase your risk of getting cancer. Its more risky to get a CAT scan. The
risk is too high for the benefit its going to have. Ex lung cancer chemo is
poison. High risk of taking poison but the benefit outweighs the risk of
, taking it for better benefits. Ex child falls off bunk bed the risk outweighs the
benefit of getting a CAT scan. Put a tattoo to match the radiation beams to
that area. Chemo kill both the bad and the good cells.
