1. "Emancipatory Knowing" & Patient Outcome??

   Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in General Nursing

   You're just pointing out what my thread is really about. I'm just using science as the basis for my argument, and you're drawing the conclusion. I noticed leveraging science seems to decrease the probability of getting hassled around here. So if what...

2. "Emancipatory Knowing" & Patient Outcome??

   Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in General Nursing

   Correct, I got hassled here before when I suggesting nursing school is now indoctrinating students... so if you're now suggesting that, have fun. Regardless, if it has a basis in science, I'm down for discussion. Trust me when I say, I simply cannot...

3. "Emancipatory Knowing" & Patient Outcome??

   Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in General Nursing

   I couldn't find any research showing a correlation... is that wrong to say?

4. "Emancipatory Knowing" & Patient Outcome??

   Tetra posted a topic in General Nursing

   I checked out our LRC and looked pretty hard to find any peer reviewed journal article proving a statistical correlation between outcome improvement, and "emancipatory knowing"... found nothing. It's almost as though there isn't any actual science be...

5. Health Care is Not a Right

   Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism

   What the heck, when have you ever heard of anyone making a criticism, not on the basis of morality? If we thought the system we lived in was moral, there would be nothing to criticize. So your argument is that I can only critisize the health care sys...

6. Health Care is Not a Right

   Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism

   If you've actually read all 25 pages, you'd see this argument comes up countless times. You're argument is essentially that I can't be critical of the Canadian system because I benefit from the Canadian system. That's silly. In your mind, when can a ...

7. Health Care is Not a Right

   Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism

   I've dealt with the majority of these arguments at some point or another in this thread... I mean jeepers, it's 25 pages long. Not to sure what you mean by "point by point" specifically, but I did respond to you in the manner I'm guessing you're look...

8. Health Care is Not a Right

   Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism

   I would argue justice goes hand in hand with equity. That is a debate for another thread though. Either way, I value equality. Just wanted to know your stance is all.

9. Health Care is Not a Right

   Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism

   Question @shibaowner, by "social justice" (I think you've mentioned this a couple times?), are you referring to identity politics? If so, what does that have to do with nursing?

10. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism

    I pay taxes here in Canada, some of that goes to health care... doesn't mean I can't lobby for change, vote, and disagree with how things are. Lot's of people think health care is a right, doesn't make it one either.

11. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism

    So your argument is essentially whenever someone can't pay for something, it's a form of discrimination?

12. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism

    Well I don't make money doing it, so that's most likely very accurate. Yes I have the burden of proof, but not for the reason you stated. I've already stated, just because "the majority of developed countries believe that it is", does not make it a ...

13. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism

    I would say that whether or not it's discrimination is dependant on if it's a right.

14. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism

    Has anyone here seen someone refused care in the US due to lack of insurance?

15. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism

    I've been fairly respectful and polite the whole time... that's not common behavior for someone trying to simply get a rise out of people. What's with the obsession with focusing on my character, over simply giving me an argument as to why you think ...
