Good or Evil?

She or He?

........... God made us all different, yet we share a common thread...nursing. Therefore, treat everyone the same...with respect..and you can't go wrong. To say there is "blatant spiritual warfare on the floor and in the units" is to say that someone is possessed or who satan is using to tear us down (as Christians) spiritually. ............if I weren't already a Christian who was secure in my beliefs, YOU would DEFINITELY turn me completely OFF the Word of God. God wants us to be a living example ("...they will know us by our fruits") I hope you don't go around your unit "preaching" your twisted views of Christianity. Remember, God WILL hold you accountable for that, too. Sometimes, it's just better to shut our mouths and be a living example...like I try to do!

4greatkids, I edited the quote above here for space saving purposes... but in summation, what I wished to say is Well said.

Snowy, i hope that the toilet that cat is looking in was CLEAN lol.

Well, you are right about the "FRUIT" part. As in fruit loops.....

It's funny that you're a secular humanist and don't believe in God, since God, Himself, aspires to be a secular humanist and has to try really hard to believe we exist. But that's another topic.

So you would call it negligence. So would I except I know the nurse knew exactly what he/she was doing. No negligence involved. If you don't like the word "evil" I could settle on the word "malice."

If you felt someone was being "malice" in regard to patient care", why didn't you go to a supervisor and report this nurse?

So are you saying that anyone whose motivation isn't building the Kingdom Of God evil? tmiller027, I with ya!

Your theories are very intriguing, except for one small detail: I'm not an RN yet; I was a student. So, discount me, but I saw what I saw. If it makes you more comfortable, we can just drop this whole string and move on to some new business.

When I was a nursing student, I would have gone to my instructor with questions or concerns. She would have reported this to the proper authorities.

I was a student, and I didn't trust my own observations at the time.

No. I'm not, actually.

Oh. Well, it sounds like you had a positive learning environment in school.

If the nurse truly witheld pain medicine because she didn't like the person you aren't going to find one of us that isn't going to say that was not wrong or unethical, and against the nurse practice act, and basically everything we stand for as nurses. Is it "evil"? There are so many definiitions of "evil" one could say it was.

But do you truly know her assessments and what her thinking was?

no i don't. i can only describe things as they appear to me to be. i was only wondering if anyone in this forum would consider the situation evil. but it's time to move on to new business i think.
