Because the physician is in a higher position of responsibility. The assistant is under the direction of the physician - therefore the physician is equally responsible when something goes wrong.

In the US what disqualifies you from voting legally?

In many states, a felony conviction for anything removes your voting rights. A conviction on most felony offenses will cause you to have your voting rights removed or curtailed. I believe that there are at least 2 states that allow felons in prison to vote but the remainder do not. Some states have provisions in their law to allow a convicted felon (once they have served their time) to have their record altered (expunged) and they can once again regain their rights, but not all. you will have to research your own states law on this matter.


How can chromatagraphy be used in crime scenes?

It is a valuable tool used by chemists to identify chemical components or biological materials that might be clues to a crime. Chromatography is a way of separating chemicals from one another. One of those chemicals might shed light on the crime or provide investigators with leads or answers useful in solving the crime. Chromatography was developed by a Russian botanist in 1906 to study plant pigments. Then chemists realized it was an excellent way to study all kinds of complex mixtures. Forensic science jumped all over that one in order to identify unknown samples from a crime scene! Win-win!


Can a felon become a nurse?

Simply put, NO, all employers will do backround checks. You're nursing college will do backround checks. The ANA will look at you like a crook! If you are an ex con. Find an other job, nursing is not for convicts b/c people in nursing judge you like they don't have anything better to do ex con or not. Contrair moofrair....while it may be "typical" practice to not employ felons, this doesn't mean it's impossible for someone with a felony to become a nurse. It truly depends on the degree and type of criminal act. In Ohio, most violent charges will exclude you from becoming a nurse automatically, however they WILL consider licensing and employment of felons with non-violent charges including drug trafficking and fraud. The policy expresses that it will be reviewed on a case by case basis, and the hiring of such felons is left up to the employers themselves. So, simply put, it's difficult but not impossible for a felon to become licensed and employed as a nurse. http://www.nursing.ohio.gov/pdfs/OHCRC.pdf
