Re: dressing

I don't make any assumptions when it comes to Medicare.  You do know what happens when you assume, don't you??   Seriously, I think it's more likely that the areas are left open to air after Neosporin is applied.   Holly ----- Original Message ----- From: MDSNancy To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, November 24, 2003 4:21 PM Subject: dressing Ok,  I think I'm arguing semantics here, but here's the question.  A Medicare A resident has an order that reads  "apply neosporine to scratches on lower leg BID".  So my question is, can I "assume" that the neosporine was covered by a dressing?  or should I err on the side of caution and leave M5g blank?   Thanks Do you Yahoo!?
