Straight A Nursing

Every other week I'm republishing one of my most popular or impactful episodes and adding an update, new insight, or context that will help you benefit from it even more. This week I'm highlighting Episode 116, which is all about pediatric pharmacology. When you understand these key foundation concepts, the whole subject of pharm gets a whole lot easier. Enjoy! As cute and adorable as they are, kids are not just tiny adults. Especially when it comes to pharmacology.
