Or try this one. In our class we had 50 students, after pediatrics we now have 15.. How is that helping the nursing shortage? The students said that the finals were nothing like they had expected and not what they were told to expect. The faculty responded with "everything is fair game" I am thankful to have passed.

To get kicked out of school for questioning is crazy. I can understand failing grades, but questioning no. We are told to question what we doubt. However; I don't think I as a student would ahve questioned a nurse cutting the foam, It wasn't going to kill the patient maybe cost more money to use a new kit, but not kill the patient. I would have just watched learned from her mistake and when we left the room then talked to her. I can't imagine a student telling me what to do. There are some irresponsible nurses but if it wasn't killing the patient, or harming the patient. I think i would have waited. AND nothing you do in the real world is what you do in school anyway!!!! So you have to do your own way of getting things done and that may have been her way. As long as it was clean, not harming, and done right. Oh well... I would have fought this with all I had though!!!!

I have a question about this. I am really confused and want some advice. Recently a professional football player had a baby at our hospital. Word got out that he was tehre some how and all the dads were outside of the room it was pretty funny. My patient asked me what room he was in and I said I didn't know. I was NOT going to tell them teh room number!!! Today on TV it said the football players name and that he had recently had a baby. I turned to my friend and said oh I was there that day and that he was a very nice man. I even told her how I asked him a stupid question about his profession. Her friend turned to me and said you need to be careful what you say you can get into trouble and go to jail! I think I did something wrong but not sure..... some info would be great. Or an explanation of HIPPA. I understand it but not sure about what you can say. Thanks.
