Adoption

Thank you for your responses, this was an assignment for class where I was supposed to get other nurses FEELINGS about the scenario presented.

And people wonder why we get cranky about homework questions.

I'm working hard enough in my own program, thanks, do your own dang homework. And go punk someone else!

I have seen students say that they were instructed to interview or talk to other nurses as part of their homework. I was never told to go find some nurses to ask questions about my homework, and when I was in school I didn't know any nurses and unless I walked into a hospital and asked random nurses, I wouldn't have been able to complete that task. Did any of you guys actually get an assignment in school like that, or is this just students ways of getting us to do their homework??

The poster is an LPN. She has access to in-person nurses, no doubt.

This is one time I hope a poster's instructor reads here and identifies her and slams her for dishonesty, as well as lowers her paper grade for these shenanigans.

I assigned students to pick a community health problem and find a nurse who works toward its resolution and meet with the person to talk about it. This was before online forums were so prevalent. Students had to get their project and interviewee approved before they could do it, however. I never would have approved asking a question or several online and using typed answers. Never. One of the big reasons for the project was the interaction of the meeting/interview and another was networking for the future, and yet another was to get students outside their comfort zone to push themselves to go find someone who know something outside the books.

Thank you for your responses, this was an assignment for class where I was supposed to get other nurses FEELINGS about the scenario presented. Due to HIPAA laws I couldn't go into further detail which you would need to know to jump to some of the conclusions that were written. I believe this to be a prime example of how great patient care can still be given regardless of some of the details like the adoption process laws that we may disagree with. In any case I just wanted to understand how other people FELT about this law for my class. Thank You and God bless!

Well, I certainly hope that in the future you don't require any help with a legitimate problem because I can guarantee that you have effectively and permanently tanked your reputation here.

Sheesh, that'll teach me to respond before reading all the replies. Not cool, OP.

I believe this to be a prime example of how great patient care can still be given regardless of some of the details like the adoption process laws that we may disagree with.

It is our responsibility as professionals to provide "great patient care" regardless of the situation 100% of the time... it does not matter how you personally feel about the patient's religion, race, sexual orientation, view of DNRs, view of adoption, {the list is endless}... you always provide the best care you can.

just my 2 cents :)

So rather than thinly veil or straight up dupe the posters here on AN to do your homework assignment, you went about it the way you did? Wow.

How do you think God feels about the dishonest stuff you just pulled here today?

Boy! Makes you wonder about the future of OP for her education and professional career. Like she openly LIED about the scenario in her post, then admitted to it. Like no big whoop!

Oh, to lie and then wish "God bless". Any incongruity there?!?

Liar, liar, pants on fire! My kid sister used to say when she was 5 years old. At 5 yo she knew the difference.
