  1. "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...

  2. "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...

  3. "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...

  4. "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

  5. Most Useful Canadian Nursing Textbook?

    Tetra posted a topic in Canada

    May I ask in your opinion what Canadian nursing textbook you have found to be the most useful? McMaster has heavily recommended Canadian Fundamentals of Nursing, and wanted to know what you all think?...

  6. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra posted a topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Before we get into it, I'm going into first year nursing... but I'm not some young kid. I'm 34, married with a family, studied philosophy in my early 20's, and lived well below the poverty line for my...

  7. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    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...

  8. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    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...

  9. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    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...

  10. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    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

  11. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    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

  12. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    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...

  13. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

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

  14. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    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...

  15. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

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

  16. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

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

  17. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    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...

  18. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Great question. Well I do love people in spite of what others think of me. Outside of that, everyone assumes I want to be an RN. That's an option for sure. However, without a doubt assuming I complete...

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I'll look further into this MunoRN! Thank you for the link.

  20. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I think you're making a lot of assumptions about my political worldview, and myself in general. I'm hardly far right, I'm right leaning on some issues, left leaning on others. When did I ever suggest...

  21. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Well, I don't think I'm going to breeze through school or anything, it'll be hard work, but I'm very academically competitive. The work ethic of the kids at school is brutal already. We're 1 week in...

  22. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Shibaowner, my arguments were in regards to the nature of rights, and socialized health care. There is tons of stuff I don't know, in health care and otherwise. I'm not opposed to learning, if you...

  23. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Don't know if I agree entirely. Laws can only be passed to recognize or protect human rights, they can also instantiate positive rights. However, it would require mutual consent to "give them up", and...

  24. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    How can you give up rights that are inherent to your existence? That doesn't even make sense. I suppose you could contractually waive

  25. Health Care is Not a Right

    Tetra replied to Tetra's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    What's odd is that I wasn't making it up, my friend actually flew to Florida for his shoulder because he was waiting too long. So it must not be pushed here, or there's a catch I'm missing? Why would...
