I know there was an article, recently, which claimed that over 80% of medical doctors use google as reference for diagnoses.


Therefore, I'm afraid the quest for knowledge has taken a sordid turn.
The D.O.N. at the facility I work for PRN. Smdh. I'm telling him about a skin change. I tell him I have seen this issue before, and I asked his opinion. His reply, "I don't know, I Googled my way through nursing school"
YIKES! Glad there are plenty of well educated nurses that actually give hands on patient care.
