The QSEN guidelines help me to educate my students on how to create a safer clinical environment for them and the patients. 1  One way that my workplace is implementing QSENâs guidelines is by starting a shift change meeting called the âHuddleâ and students are invited to participate.
Drinking a gallon of water is safe if you spread it out throughout the day, but if you consume it in less than an hour, you risk getting water intoxication, which can be deadly. Water intoxication can happen with levels as low as 3 liters, a little less than a gallon, per hour.
Your body contains more water than anything else, about 60 percent of your total body weight. Water helps regulate your body temperature, transports nutrients, and helps remove waste. Every day you lose water when you breathe, sweat, urinate, and defecate, and that water needs to be replenished. The big question is how much water do you need to drink every day? Although that's a simple question, it doesn't have an easy answer.
