1. 0200 BP's - Dealing with Tired Rude Doctors

   Jennifer in Cali replied to Jennifer in Cali's topic in Relations

   Janey, good question. First and foremost (from my limited persective), I would like to feel that me and the docs are on the same page. It is obvious the hospital has objectives, core measures, and standards that need to be met to receive medicare ...

   Jennifer in Cali replied to Jennifer in Cali's topic in Relations

   Thank you RN to ACGNP, so all I need to do is stop taking things personal, realize that I have to deal with rude people, and stop defending myself so much, and act professional. Very helpful advice, thank you.

   Lots of food for thought here. I feel that a few of you understood where I was coming from, and gave the support I was looking for, so thank you for that. To the others, it seems I did not make my intent for this post clear, so I will attempt to cl...

   Not sure why this pt was woken up, you would have to ask the nurse taking care of her, and even though I took care of this particular patient the week before, I don't feel at liberty to discuss her case here. I also don't feel the need to explain any...

   Hi Allnurses! New grad RN here, and I've been on my own, out of orientation for a few months now. I work on a busy med-surg floor that does it all, and wow, what a roller-coaster ride this has been. So I just have to share a recent experience with ...
