this radio dj "reviews" his hospital stay. he feels he would be in "better hands if i had nurses that were sexy". grrr!! tired of men thinking nurses are pin-up girls in stiletto heels wearing white miniskirts! what a jerk!
hey whats up? big boy here. as a lot of people may have noticed i have not been on the radio much the past couple of days. that is because i have been in the hospital. since i have not been able to share some of my experiences on-air i thought i would do it right here online.
first of all i am in here because i have a skin infection called cellulitis. it is on my right leg and it really sucks. it has been very painful but thank god for pain meds. when you really need them they are truly a blessing. as far as the rest of my experience, i guess it has been okay other than a few major flaws. first off i know no one likes to be in the hospital (other than my dad). one thing that is truly messed up in the health system is in order to be admitted to the hospital you have to go through e.r. now just to walk through the door of the e.r your looking at about a $2,000 charge at least so if you do not have insurance or you are poor you’re screwed. i feel like that is wrong and should be stopped but you know how that goes doctors and politicians walk hand in hand.
my next biggest complaint is by far the food. the nearly 8 grand price tag it cost to be admitted to the hospital should totally include some 5 star food like steak and lobster. i realize it is not a resort but i do think part of the getting well process should be great comfort food. my next thing was the room accommodations, with it being a hospital it obviously gets a great vote for being clean but the beds are basically cheap foam and cotton covered in water proof plastic. i swear my bed could be used as a flotation device. i have greatly enjoyed all of the buttons my bed has to offer as i treated it like a theme park ride all weekend. it has kept me amused. however i have to be in this bed pretty much at all times. my back and my butt are killing me. they need some nice pillow top mattresses so people can sleep well.
my last thing is maybe the least important but it would be a nice change in community hospitals. i know there are a lot i repeat a lot of sexy nurses here in the tri-state. during my stay i had none. i had a few that were as evil as they were ugly. one lady was like 70 and she seemed as if she had just had a stroke. there was even one bigger than me with very hairy man arms as well as a few that were very nice and helpful. i just feel that i would feel in much better hands if i had nurses that were sexy. i would want them stabbing me with needles, checking my vitals and doing to me what ever the doc ordered. any chance to get them to touch me would be amazing. well that is my hospital experience and what i feel that it should be. please leave me your feed back below
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Perhaps he would like to sit down with someone in Administration, or even Human Resources and develop an action plan to address this issue.
This activity is pretty much on par with the type of ridiculous policies that Administration comes up with in order to justify their existence anyways.
lol i get that part, its like the little old men in the nursing home tho.... whats it hurt for them to look its not as if they are ever gonna get it, so the pigs like a good look at hot nurses... its an old thing that nursing is a sexy profession um it really isnt haha, its just men being men, and personally i think its just funny and i dont care i love the fact when my hubby tells new co-workers or friends that im a nurse they say whoaaaa man is she hot and hubby whips up the pant leg and keeps the hot nurses fantasy goin.... at least in 30 years when im not a sexy nurse my glory day will be forever engraved on his leg hahaha thanks to the best tattooist
lol why is everyone so mad, I think its pretty funny come on am i the only sexy nurse on here who enjoys the fact im super smart and sexy and represent a real life fantasy? my husband had a real portrait pin up girl style of me in a sexy nurse costume tattooed on his leg he wears shirts that say i feel safe at night i sleep w a hot nurse, its a hot profession loosen up folks lol, just sayin........
Are you serious??
Seriously, is this a troll?
If your husband thinks you're hot, that's wonderful and I'm glad you're in a happy marriage. But, none of us care what you look like (or that there's a cartoon version of you tattooed on your husband, for that matter), and anyone who relies on your nursing care to survive doesn't care what you look like.
Your comment doesn't really showcase your intelligence. We're all on here to support each other in hopes to strengthen perceptions of nursing as a career full of intelligent, educated professionals. Comments like yours do not give us nurses much help. Come on!
There will always be dirtbags that are our patients. I cannot imagine that it would be fun to be a female nurse dealing with that crap either. I will say that the women that learn to put those patients in their place from the beginning have less of a hard time with jerk patients like that. The other guys that I work with and me will often help with that process if need be, and often I will request those patients just to avoid any of those issues. We are a pretty tigh group in this ICU and we certainly look out for each other.
oh excuse me honestly didnt mean to offend anyone , i was just trying to make light of the matter, sorry again, and its not a cartoon its a real portrait and i was just adding to the fact that men can be pigs and stereotype nursing as a hot profession, i am suddenly not showcasing my intelligence now i guess cuz i have a sense of humor...... hmmmm i bet my 3.9 gpa begs to differ o well honestly was just trying to have a laugh.... woops guess i came to the wrong place.... only staight laces stodgy and serious need respond huh, one more thing tho um ppl do care what ya look like... had many family members over the years say o i just know u take such good care of so and so by how nice u always look. yes i take the time to look nice so in turn i give that kind of meticulous care.
WOW...that is exactally what I thought when I read this... Seriously, does he think WE want to be taking care of pts like HIM anyway... I would love to have all my pts be tall dark and handsome, with great veins. It would be nice for us to have nobody crap thier pants or grab our hair because they are scared because they just woke up and have Alzheimers and have no clue who we are or where they are... Would'nt it be nice if the world were PERFECT... Get a clue Mr DJ. You are not a God send to make our lives better as nurses...
If all shock jocks were kind, personable, courteous, and even-tempered....
...they'd be unemployed. His attitude is swinish, but it's his job. Unfortunately, there are people who take whatever the slop the schlock jocks dish out as the Gospel truth.

Then too bad he chose to dish out how unattractive he thought the nurses were, as opposed to telling everyone the ACTUAL TRUTH: how they fed him, kept him clean, and gave him antibiotics and pain meds!

I'm sorry, but none of your posts on this thread highlight your intelligence, and that's just being honest. This view means I lack a "sense of humor?"
"ppl do care what ya look like" (see above sentence)......while yes, how you look contributes to the impression people form of you, this DJ's article obviously goes WAY beyond that theory. "Taking the time to look nice" does NOT necessarily equate with "meticulous patient care," either. Sometimes it means you're too worried about how you look to focus on your patients well enough. Before you turn that around, I too do take care with my appearance. But it's not because I'm ok with the male patients I take care of getting a "thrill" out of it.
Now, a shock jock's job is to get a rise out of people, and apparently, mission accomplished. I think the problem people here have with it (and I apologize for trying to speak for everyone) is that there are PLENTY of people (read: men) that will read this and actually whole-heartedly agree with it because they truly DO have a warped view of what we do. They'll cheer this jackwagon on. I honestly could not tell if the article was meant to be tongue-in-cheek or not (and that's the problem, if it IS, it should be more obvious!).
Lastly: a GPA is SUCH a small part of a nurse as a whole.....obviously.
ahhhh yes mission accomplished here as well lol look how easy all the "sheeple" follow, i personally am fine with not "showcasing my intelligence on here", im a fine nurse all the way around the same as the rest of you, we r all different and thats nice because pts are all different, and sorry i dont take the time to bust out all the big words and good grammer, to impress upon the readers how smart i am... gpa is a small part like u say personality and attutude are a big part too.... and r u drawn to the busted messed up looking hairdresser for good results? yea when i owned my own salon i made it known that u might be a great hairdresser and a nice person but if u r jacked looking your business will suffer so yesssss ppl do care what the hell ya look like, i love a good rise and wow how easy it was foe some of u..... others probably wer smart enough to read between the lines, the ones that payed attention in psych anyway. have a great night folks i havent a thing else to say being the dee ta dee i is cuz i shore do maka myself looka stupid for havin me a different o-pinny
