MOFT or MLFT paperwork associated with "end-of-life care"
Subject: MOFT or MLFT paperwork associated with "end-of-life care"

I am not absolutely sure about the M (could be N) or O (could be L), but I know it is an accronym as he says:


"discuss end-of-life care and capital M, capital O, capital F, capital T paperwork."


I cannot figure out what kind of form this is or what the accronym stands for. He says it so quick I am not even sure I have the right letters!


Thanks for your help!

they should care
Subject: they should care

well, who should care?  The MT him or herself.  This can be a crutch IMO.  And, no, my opinion doesn't amount to a pile o' beans in the grand scheme of things.  Maybe my post should have been more helpful, than critical, and should have asked posters if they know how to search.  I've gotten really good at it and can find just about anything really.  For instance, someone just recently posted ligament of Treitz question.  All I did was google, ligament of *.  Bingo! 


Anyway, to the person who said I should just use the back button, pfft.

2 types of anesthesia care -- see msg.
Subject: 2 types of anesthesia care -- see msg.

Local and MAC (monitored anesthesia care) are 2 types of anesthesia, so probably "Local/MAC" would be best. However, I don't think I have ever been dinged on QA for typing "Local MAC" with a space.

Here is a link to an article on anesthesia types.
