Back stabbing

I'm currently a second yr student nurse and I'm really disappointed in my fellow tem members. I find as a student you are often being discourage into the profession by mentors and their behaviour towards each other is little better than squabbling five year olds. I'm feed up with hearing mentors and health care support workers slag each other off in my presence, not only does it make me feel uncomfortable but it also makes me doubt entering a profession where the MDT cant remain professional at work. During this placement I have seen a fellow student leave the ward in tears twice due to the aggression her mentors have portrayed towards her. Luckily I have a great support system behind me so when I get home I can vent to them, go back on the ward and take their behaviour with a pinch of salt, and lashings of vodka on the wkend. Just want to know is it this bad when you qualify? or r there any other students that experience difficult placements, if so what are your coping strategies.

Thanks for allowing me to vent:nuke:

Oh well I use it and my co-workers love the expression But the dutchess never swears so I would die laughing if I even thought she would use that expression

By the way the Dutchess is none other than my good friend Cariad. I really dont know why she is friends with me as I have to admit I love swearing Sorry folks I know that has shocked you but I do come from manchester and we like swearing there

WEll it really makes me laugh every time I hear an English actor use swear words on an American TV show & gets away with it because they don't use that word in the USA.

Funny because we know ALL their swear words!

I'm sure someone will cotton on soon though? Mind you we are talking about a country where a major film company had racoons & skunks runing about in the heart of the English countryside (the live 101 Dalmations in case you didn't know) and who thought US children would be too thick to find out what a hedgehog was so called them porcupines in "Bob the Builder!"
