Apparently our hosptial has adopted a "no food from vendors policy". I received an e-mail from one of the nurse managers this morning, which states that they also may not contribute to conference expenses either. I really what to see what happens with this. Is it just co-incidence that I haven't seen our frienldy ABM rep lately or seen any invitations to lunch and learn sessions, they are so eager to have. I guess that means even our friendly pump companies can no longer bring lunch or snacks either. However will we survive, TIC. LuAnn Smith RN, BSN,IBCLC P.S. Wonder what tactics the ABM people will use next to lure us into brand loyalty. Anyone else notice changes like this from your administration? _________________________________________________________________ Make every IM count.
