how about separating advanced practice nurses from RN's? I don't know how many choices the board software allows.

Also, for the sake of my colleagues who are DO's, can you edit the choice to be MD/DO?

Thanks.

the board is being buggy for me tonight, so i can't edit my post.

I was attempting to say that I would be interested in separate tallies for CRNAs vs. NPs vs. CMNs, etc. if the board software allows that many choices.

Also, how about editing MD to MD/DO, either simply state "physician" or add equivalent degrees to MD/DO - for example the degress typically in use in the commonwealth.

It won't let me edit the poll - maybe RR can. He has better privs. I agree MD/DO would be better.

Maybe I should have put NP and PA in the same category...

Unfortunatly, the board only supports 10 options. I not only wanted to break the choices down more, but add others like herbalist, expedition medic and remote medic as well as splitting up advanced mil medics 18D from corpsman.

We had the same problem with the antibio poll.

Thanks RR!

Looks good to me.

Is there some way to increase the maximum number of options in a poll? - this has come up before.

btw: Paramedics can also be the equivelent of a NP - what do you call that? - what are the initials?
