  1. ER Nurse Attitude

    Thank you, all, for your responses. I just wanted to see all of your perspectives on the issue. I had explained to my mom at the time that nurses can be pulled in several different directions at once and that I can understand why the nurse was acting...
  2. ER Nurse Attitude

    I completely understand, and I especially agree with your last sentence, which I felt like is the biggest issue for me. The issue isn't the fact that my grandmother had to wait but, from what I was told, that the nurse was being rude.
  3. ER Nurse Attitude

    I think the issue was less about what the nurse was saying and more of how she was explaining it. She could have used a little more detail and stated exactly what you said: that while distressing, my grandmother is not in a life-threatening condition...
  4. ER Nurse Attitude

    A few weeks ago, my 89 year-old grandmother fell at her home, resulting in a bleeding gash in her arm (and later discovered, a broken hip). My mother took her to the emergency room. I wasn't there, so everything I write here is what was told to me by...
  5. SICK of BSN Pedestal

    Ah ok, that seems to make more sense. I think the poster was being sincere just because she mentioned how useful it is to know Spanish in her area. Sarcasm can be completely lost on me in the Internet world

  7. Who actually likes nursing??

    3 out of 4 times, it's not bedside nursing. Nurses can take on countless roles that extend beyond direct patient care in a hospital setting (teaching, research, public health, etc.). That's what is meant by that statistic, not nurses leaving the prof...
  8. Pediatric Clinical

    Thank you to all of you for the encouraging words!!! We had orientation last week so my first official day will be this week and I'm definitely looking forward to starting!
  9. Pediatric Clinical

    I'll be starting my pediatric clinical rotation in just a few days. What has the experience been like for all of you? What should I expect for this clinical? This is the rotation I am looking forward to the most because I enjoy working with kids, bu...
  10. Frightened to Become a Nurse

    I'm about to begin my 3rd year of nursing school to recieve my BSN. I've browsed through the forums here every so often and it's making me extremely anxious about going into nursing as a career. I initially wanted to become a nurse because I was inte...
