I have made a complaint against an NP

Published

Not to the State, but to the organization. She is an FNP who comes to work in tight black jeans, lace tee shirt and stilettos.

She is 29 years old, virtually no RN experience, and thinks she knows psychiatry.

She is going to d/c various antipsychotics.

It's inappropriate especially if she works in a psych setting. If there's a psych emergency she either can't run fast enough or the stilettos can be used as a weapon.

Is there a dress code where you work? If not mind your business and let her discover the inherent dangers of her clothing and footwear choices. I once told a new doctor who liked open toed shoes to be careful in room 12 because the patient liked to masturbate a lot and while housekeeping was trying to keep it clean she was still likely to step in a puddle of semen? She wore closed shoes after that.

I'm not sure why you're telling me to "mind my own business" when I wasn't the one to report this person. I'm just saying how stiletto is inappropriate in that setting.

But to address your post - I have never in 18 years of psych nursing seen a Dr. or NP run away from to towards a psych emergency.

Clothes do say something, despite the demurring and feigned surprise and confusion. If you look like you're trolling for a little action, odds are, you are...

Is anything up? Post seems oddly out of character for oldmahubbard.
