Hi Car, good to know that not all the useful things were thrown out with the
modern teaching methods :0)
Anyone watching the series 'Thoroughly Modern Matron' on BBC2 this
week..........??
Regards, Bob

Hello Bob,
As one of the dreaded "recent generation" "P2000" RNs I'd like to point
out that we do venture onto the wards occasionally during training and have
contact with patients and drug charts, and learn phrases like "bd, tds, qds"
and "od" so it's not just the old style antiquated SRN training that taught
such things ;-)
Car :-D

Hi Tracey,
You are obviously from a recent nursing generation of RN's.
Those of us who trained as SRN's had to learn all the prescribing
abbreviations. PRN is abbreviated Latin for: pro re nata (as the situation
demands; as needed).
Regards, Bob
