  1. Sexism in nursing

    I find that as a man in nursing, I encounter a lot of sexism from my female coworkers. When I am doing my shift in labor and delivery I'm always called out of my patient's room if one of the nurses wants help with lifting heavy patients or things and...
  2. Annoying female coworker conversations

  3. Workplace Bullying-Nursing or 7th Grade?

    One of my nursing friends new to the profession recently said that nurses were among the most unpleasant, rude individuals she ever had the displeasure of encountering, and I was disappointed to only be able to argue that that was not true of all nur...
  4. Bullying

    That does sound a tad odd to me too!
  10. I Feel Like My Privacy Was Violated

    I need some perspective on a situation that occurred recently please! Until recently, I worked in a NP owned clinic. There were 2 NPs in the practice, one of whom is the owner while the other is just employed there. For over a year now, my healthcar...
