    Please help the MD, don't put him/her to shame!

    SharonH, RN replied to CaLLaCoDe's topic in General Nursing

    I thought that TeleRNer only brought the post over from SDN, he didn't write it

    Please help the MD, don't put him/her to shame!

    SharonH, RN replied to CaLLaCoDe's topic in General Nursing

    That's my point. It's sad that it happens so rarely that when we meet a physician who is essentially acting the way he should, we have to get so excited that we run to post about it on the internet....

    A surgeon's perception of nursing education.

    SharonH, RN replied to Grandy's topic in General Nursing

    In a lot of ways, this article was contradictory. The surgeon clearly values good nursing care and has a great understanding of what nurses do which is great as I swear some physicians have no clue....

    Please help the MD, don't put him/her to shame!

    SharonH, RN replied to CaLLaCoDe's topic in General Nursing

    this post is really kind of sad. apparently, the work atmosphere is so poisonous where she works that a polite physician is deserving of some kind of hero worship. it really is a shame that she thinks...

    It's sometimes hard being a nurse of color isn't it?

    SharonH, RN replied to Kanani_Ikike's topic in General Nursing

    You're kidding! Boston???? lolol..........Oh Leslie, I don't mean to make fun of you but honestly, Boston has one of the worst reputations for racism in the country, certainly in the Northeast. It's...

    It's sometimes hard being a nurse of color isn't it?

    SharonH, RN replied to Kanani_Ikike's topic in General Nursing

    I know you believe this, but I don't. Not for one minute, do I believe that your entire institution is held hostage by Black people who act as they please and do what they want because of the fear of...

    Define being supportive.

    SharonH, RN replied to CraigB-RN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    That's a good question and sorry I don't have an answer. It's definitely not a gender thing. In one discussion on this board, a member posted about being bullied in the workplace and I responded that...

    BON wants my adoption decree!

    SharonH, RN replied to brookorrn's topic in General Nursing

    How bizarre, I think I would really challenge them on this. If your birth certificate has your adopted name on it, then why is that necessary? For goodness sake, I understand that their role is to...

    SharonH, RN replied to Kanani_Ikike's topic in General Nursing

    No one will appreciate her unless she appreciates herself first, she doesn't need another man to do it for her. LET HIM GO! 4 kids or not, life is too short for that garbage, it's time you learn that...

    SharonH, RN replied to Kanani_Ikike's topic in General Nursing

    Hello there. I've been a nurse for 16 years now. I received my BSN at 21 so I was very young when I entered this field. I've encountered all that you have mentioned and more; I've been called the 'N'...

    SharonH, RN replied to Jo Dirt's topic in General Nursing

    I must agree wholeheartedly with Leslie! Mama, this is really a great opportunity to brush up on your skills, this is a better opportunity than a general med-surg floor even. You have expressed...

    Jehovah Witness RNs

    SharonH, RN replied to aimeeinorbit's topic in General Nursing

    That is exactly right. However, this is a nursing board and the topic should be the practice of nursing as it intersects with the religion. This is not the place to air your personal issues and...

    Oh what a nightmare, I'm sorry you're going through this. Nothing is more deflating than providing the best care you can for a patient only to be accused of harm or

    No she doesn't. Her stupidity is all her own. I would say that she has a short future in nursing but she's a manager already????? So who

    SharonH, RN replied to CyndieRN2007's topic in General Nursing

    Oh geez, here we go. It isn't legal to have an all-Black school. That is why they don't exist. It's funny that you claim to be Cherokee and German but you didn't know that there are schools which are...

    "You dont look like a Susan Brown" (long)

    SharonH, RN replied to CyndieRN2007's topic in General Nursing

    She sounds painfully, painfully ignorant not just because of her racist beliefs but because she is clearly so unpolished that she is unable to keep it out of her professional life. Who doesn't know in...

    Going to have to get hospital job...so depressed

    SharonH, RN replied to Jo Dirt's topic in General Nursing

    I actually lost a co-worker this way. She fell asleep and hit a tree, after working a double shift. She died in the ICU a couple of weeks later. She was a lovely person and a very hard

    Nurses belligerent towards MDs

    SharonH, RN replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

    No, you are getting it very wrong. You are not "encapsulating my statements" correctly. I do not resent that doctors are catered to. I don't have a problem with physicians, I've told you that. My...
