Except when there are bad outcomes because the actual patient status doesn’t match up with MAR? And then it becomes the M&M case of the week.

Imo it depends on the patient. If the patient says they take the meds but their signs - vitals, telemetry, routine labs, PE, etc show otherwise - then it’s your responsibility to confirm or deny patient medication adherence.
I’d like to say a functioning healthcare team means that the top level providers will trust their nurse’s judgement about the patients they are in charge of.
But at the end of the day this is about treating patients and ensuring that a standard of care is met. Part of that standard is allowing for shared decision making, non paternalistic care, etc.
But again, it is your responsibility to know what is happening with the patient. It’s not really that you’re forcing the patient to adhere, it’s to confirm if they take it or not.
does this include the MSG channel?
I think ublock is working on a fix
yeah I was talking about leftist extremists. not sure how the term “far leftist” was interpreted as all leftist
Unfortunately this is a very classic far leftist take. Easy to blindly justify a cause you’ve been told to believe in when you simply dehumanize what you’ve been told are the villains
does quad9 block ads as well? I thought it was only trackers
any advice on using searx? I try to find a usable instance on searx.space but it’s always a struggle for me
used these all the time in high school. Loved these sims
saving this, super cool
iPhones have always had a switch that toggles the phone between mute and sound on. This button replaces that switch
If there was lineageos support I might consider it - I only see up to the 8 on the site (and not sure what to expect). it’s frustrating because in a lot of ways this is the perfect phone for me. the 2 years of support is a huge dealbreaker –
Thanks! I’ve been looking for this as well
I’ve worked in genetics settings, and am considering a career in it – which is partially why I wouldn’t want to send my DNA in. I don’t really see a point in it because you said, its mostly statistical analysis and, buy and large, isn’t very specific.
For lack of better term this privatized genetic screening phenomenon feels like pop science on crack. Spit in a tube, have the cool science company analyze it - find out cool stuff. But when I’m asked about it, I always warn people of the same thing. This is still a relatively new field. Legislation protecting people on the privacy of their genetic code is shaky at best, and the information you get isn’t going to be all that useful.
My parents both come from different ethic minority populations so they wanted to learn more about their roots.
taking these tests for medical reasons, or for adopted people
which in response to that - I’d say that that another case could be for people that do have a curiosity of where they came from given other unique familial backgrounds - which is why I mentioned my family. But I agree it’s hard to draw the line on cost/benefits for each person and where it’s merely novelty versus having legitimate benefit.
for getting a better medical understanding - I really think that it would be better to see a genetic counselor or clinical geneticist. It’s still a growing field in medicine so there aren’t that many - and they typically work in prenatal and pediatric settings. But it’s my hope that as the profession grows, this information will be liaised more by medical professionals - both to guide people in understanding the results of genetic screens and also so that this information is protected under patient privacy laws.
apologies if this was a little scattered. I’m kinda a nerd for genetics and have a lot of thoughts about it - and this was mostly me thinking as I was writing
Reminder that aljazeera is a Quatari state funded media outlet that tends to sensationalize violence against Palestenians and ignore cases where organizations like Hamas perpetrate violence. this is done to support their agenda of eradicating a Jewish state on a land that is home to the Jewish people and is also a place where many Palestenians call home. Aljazeera at it’s heart is an anti-semetic organization, run by a government that does not care for Jews, and therefore their anti-zionist reporting often ventures into anti-semitism.
Violence like this is deplorable and should never happen, when it does, should be sanctioned. I do not think this source is unbiased in their reporting and does not make earnest work towards supporting peaceful outcomes in the region.
Edit - typo
This makes me think of those memes where people struggle with telling white male celebrities apart
Homeland, right? I read it too - it was pretty good but that was so many years ago. Only until recently did I realize that he’s a commentator on internet privacy.
I am out to my family but I noticed that the nest display at my parents home would suggest LGBTQ+ related searches when I would talk to them. That would have terrified me when I was in the closet. I could only imagine what it’s like in a household that isn’t accepting
In order to properly document it, there would need to be visual confirmation of the medication being taken, and if it’s refused the medication needs to not be in the patients access. Otherwise OP is not a reliable historian and is unfit for their job as they refuse to comply with standard of care.
I’m on clinical rotations right now , and I literally just asked the nurse next to me about this and she said OP is dead wrong.
