   harleypinkno15 replied to purse's topic in General Nursing

   Wouldn't it be nice if we could get all of us nurses in one facility that work this way. What a blissful place it would be. I really don't know why this happens. I understand. I have often said I should just leave the building. Then what would ha...

   Boy I haven't run into to many of those types but I have run into a couple of those, really ashame. I wish the smoking in facilities would be stopped. So many people complain about this and I mean really complain, everywhere I have worked.

   harleypinkno15 replied to purse's topic in General Nursing

   I really understand how you feel this is really very frustrating. I saw a nurse leave in the middle of a med pass to go for a smoke break, when she returned she did get in trouble and was told this was unexceptable and to never do it again. I hate ...

8. Reclaiming our Profession

   harleypinkno15 replied to highlandlass1592's topic in General Nursing

   This is amazingly eloquent. I cannot describe to you how much I agree with what you have to say. Nurses are such an incredible part of the medical field and I cannot tell you that if we were not there Doctors would not know what to do with themselv...

13. Why apologize to doctor when calling?

    harleypinkno15 replied to Florence NightinFAIL's topic in General Nursing

    I think what needs to be clarified here is we do not work for Doctors and as long as we as nurses are doing our job and handling ourselves with professionalism and knowledge, our job has no reason to be threatened by anyone. I don't think anyone sho...
