Out of curiousity

[Marianne518]

Not to start a big flame fest here....but I am just curious about why anyone would want to post on these boards if they are not a nurse or a nursing student. It would be like a nurse going and posting on a physician board...just because she knows some doctors and works in a hospital. I know many paramedics, but I would not think about going and joining a board for paramedics. I know that everyone has a right to post opinions, etc. anywhere they please, but for the life of me I can't figure out why someone would want to be here if they weren't a nurse or student nurse.

Hey "Hotlips", Great response, I really enjoyed reading it :-) Yes, I know this would cause someone or a few people some work, but I would volunteer to help in any way I could. It would be shallow of anyone to suggest an idea without having the willingness, to do some of the work themselves. I just want to make sure that, my idea, although it seems to have restrictive qualities, it really doesn't. Anyone interested in our profession, either for information, or to "Air" their views about a particular subject could indeed do so, by going to the "Guest Page" and doing so. Then a Moderator, could decide whether their question/statement should be passed on to a particular discussion. My only concern is for our privacy. I also couldn't care less as to others outside the field perceive my Posts, although I do try to be respectful, of others opinions. Hope to see you again on the BB soon. If you would like to discuss this subject privately, please PM me anytime, or send me an e-mail. Have a Great Day!
