    Thank you sir, I was a Neuro-Surgical ICU nurse and transferred to MS/Telemetry because I am not used to handle multiple patients. I hope I've made the right decision. Can you list other commonly used drugs, cases, skills needed? I've noted the meds you've mentioned. I am also for a wound care training. Thank you, sir! Shared you channel to my friends. :)
