How Can I Treat Loose Watery Bowel Issues at Home?
by drelizabethblackburn＠gmail.com 05 Jan '26

05 Jan '26

Loose, watery bowel movements can often be managed at home with supportive care. Prioritize hydration by drinking water, oral rehydration solutions, or clear broths to replace lost fluids and electrolytes. Follow a bland diet such as bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast (the BRAT diet) until stools normalize. Avoid dairy, caffeine, alcohol, and greasy or spicy foods. Probiotics may help restore gut flora balance. Maintain good hygiene to prevent reinfection. If symptoms persist beyond a few days, worsen, or include fever or blood, seek medical advice. Some online discussions reference treatments alongside terms like nizonide wholesale, but professional guidance remains essential. Visit :- https://www.medzsupplier.com/product/nizonide-500mg/

Undergraduate Lab Spaces
by Trenna Reeve 23 Oct '25

23 Oct '25

Students, During student orientation at the start of this academic year it was made clear to each of your classes that the Brass, Hart and wet lab areas are joint spaces used by dental and dental hygiene student groups and must be kept neat, clean and tidy at all times. After-hours access to lab spaces is a privilege not a right. Currently the college has supported the students' request to have these labs open after hours (10pm on Monday and 8pm Thurs-Fri). After hours and weekend access was negotiated to support student learning under the agreement that students would be mindful to keep the areas clean and neat. To note, most dental colleges do not allow after-hours lab access and if so, only with very reduced supervised hours. As you can see from the attached photos the wet lab (between Brass and Hart labs) has hit a new low on cleanliness. These photos were taken this afternoon, this is deplorable. Also, there was equipment that was left running and a hot glue gun that was left plugged in and heated. This is unacceptable and a building safety issue. The limit has been reached for having myself and your course coordinators reminding you of your responsibility to keep these spaces clean and tidy. Lab cleanliness includes * all counters clean and free of debris * the face of all cabinets free of debris * all equipment that is not in direct use is shut off * the model trimmer and basin are clean and free of debris * all plaster splash has been removed from the model vibrators * all sinks are clean and clear of debris * polisher is clean and the side basins are free of debris * all supplies have been replaced to their proper storage location * all personal equipment has been removed and stored appropriately * stone scales are clean and stored properly * countertop paper replaced daily or when it becomes overly soiled or wet * No food, drinks in lidded containers Starting immediately if any of the pre-clinical lab spaces are not clean and tidy, that space will be closed for after-hours access. You will all lose the privilege of after-hours access to the pre-clinical spaces. This will be one night or one weekend loss of access but could progress to full loss of afterhours/weekend access to all lab spaces if this is not corrected. You must also ensure that you are following the after-hours timings. Custodial services have indicated that students remain in the lab after agreed times and they are unable to complete their task responsibilities. Custodial services should not get to the point that they must call security to have you move out of the lab so they can do their job. This is not fair. Do not negotiate your exit timing with custodial staff. Exit the lab on time, period. The wet lab must be cleaned immediately. I will leave this space open tonight, so you have time to sort the space out appropriately. It will be assessed tomorrow and each day subsequently and if not clean the lab space will be locked for that evening or the full weekend. Dr. Reeve Trenna M.
