can u ppl stop talking trash.
Which surgeries are nurses taught to do?
Surgeries are assisted by younger doctors, not nurses.
The latter deal with the instruments.
U are trained to be patients advocate and at the same time u turn out nightmares to patients .
U are trained to assist doctors, but u turn out disrespectful.
nurses are the rudest and most obnoxious people you can ever meet at the hospital.

No, nurses don't behave that way to me most times, and that's because they realize they might sometimes need my help as regards drug acquisition or use. But you need to see most nurses address a patient, at the slightest provocation, they rain insults on patients, esp mothers and their children. However, I must say there are always exceptions to every observation. So not all nurses, but most.

oluafolabi: Exactly. They also perform surgery, prescribe drugs and go on ward rounds. grin grin
Doclight: do there administer care to patients?
Though I sense scarsm on the first post but then...
A Med lab scientist doesn't perform surgery, if you are running a private lab, you will have to prescribe drug but if you are working in a hospital, the doctors is expected to prescribe the drugs not you safe for the prescription of antibiotics after M/C/S because you will be the one to do the sensitivity test and read the clearance and or resistance rate. And going for ward round does hold much water, even a nurse and hospital care attendant does so with the doctors. No rules said a scientist shouldn't do so. Infact seeing the patients and how they are something aid the scientists, and based on their observations too, they can discuss better discuss the patient's condition with the doctors and the way forward. But in Nigeria where we have created a wide gap between the doctors and scientists, you hardly see such happen. And the patients are the ones who suffer as a result of this.

Lab scientists are not to prescribe drugs or treatments under any circumstance, including possible prescription of antibiotics after M/C/S sensitivity test. Being in Private Practice should not be an excuse.

Professional Ethics and the Law demands that such patients be referred to a doctor for further management.

Don't treat the Test results. Treat the patient.

Doclight: which medical course is seconded to medicine/surgery in terms of populous? And why?

Med. Lab?
Optometry?
Denistry?
Pharmacy?
Biochemistry?
Microbiology?
Physiology?
Nursing science?
Physiotherapy? Etc.

Please medics comment

The fact that you consider dentistry a subset of the medicine shows a fundamental flaw. The dentist is equal to the medical doctor. A different specialty.

Abeg lab scientists can help us by processing the samples faster instead of coming to wards to do what I don't know.
y does everybody think the ward round is the epitome of health practice?

Okay. Forgive my ignorance but those course listed by OP, with Pharmacology and Medicine is under one College(faculty).

Pharmacy stands on its own and can never be a second choice for Medicine. undecided

Medicine is all about Biology(and some others) and Pharmacy is mostly of Chemistry(and some others).

Like I said, I don't see anything wrong if a scientist chooses to see the patient, no law forbids that, and you maybe you are talking about where you work, but where I work scientists produce their result and doctors are the one whom we have to keep waiting for them to come and review the result, so don't come here and make it look like the scientist are the only ones who delay patients diagnosis and treatment.

OK, keep it up at that.
By the way, are doctors the ones that go to collect results on a good day?
