   Cindy1008RN replied to SaderNurse05's topic in General Nursing

    Cindy1008RN replied to smurfed_05's topic in General Nursing

    Susan 9608, good idea. Another way I discouraged gossip was to say something edifying about the person. Counteract the gossip with a complement. Most of the time, it changed the entire atmosphere totally.
