When you need to jot down the name of a medicine, condition, or specialist for a patient and you're in a hurry, just grab a tongue depressor.
When you need to jot down the name of a medicine, condition, or specialist for a patient and you're in a hurry, just grab a tongue depressor. They're easy to write on, and patients can easily find the tongue depressor later in their purse or pocket-usually more easily than they can a piece of paper.
