Amen..I quit my last job because of this ...

because the service I worked for had an obsession with the BOS.  It was crazy.  It was follow the BOS completely unless that account or doctor wanted otherwise.  Then the QA had their own inconsistencies to deal with.  I'm not sure they could even keep track of what was supposed to be what.   Like we don't have enough to worry about  with getting medication dosages, lab values correct, etc. corerct....but we have to worry if we use cc or mL, one week or 1 week? 

Couldn't deal with the stupidity any longer.  I'm now working for a company that has never mentioned BOS and it is like night and day.  I am so happy to hear I'm not the only one who thinks the BOS is a bunch of BS.
