It would be interesting to see someone write about tattoos and peircings in the nursing profession. I have a lip peircing and had to leave a nursing job because they wanted me to take it out. All of the other places I have worked since then have not had a problem with it. I have never had a pt. complain about it and in fact have gotten several compliments on it. I also used to have dreadlocks and have gotten a lot of positive feedback from pt.'s on it. It helped the pt's to open up to me more when they saw that I was not trying to be on some moral high horse that the nursing profession tries to put us on.
Anyway, just a suggestion.
