Irony, how I love thee...

So you know how every so often someone posts a thread about how mad it makes us when someone uses the term nurse who isn't entitled to do so? And you know how you get those little ads at the top of the pages here with "relevant" content?

I just saw one on top of the "Things Patients Have Taught Me Not To Do" thread for a "Baby Nurse" company. I know the admins can't control the actual ads, but... that's pretty funny.

Full disclosure: the term "Baby Nurse" is like my personal Kryptonite. I go into spasms of rage every time I see or hear it.

Specializes in Med Surg, LTC, Home Health.

People should not be allowed to call themselves a nurse when they are not no more than calling themselves a doctor when they are not! Anyone that says otherwise has obviously been misled. Im not referring to "baby nurse" however as i have never heard of that one.:twocents:
