  10. Nursing as a customer service profession?

    nrw350 replied to EmeraldNYL's topic in General Nursing

    I think that there is a very fine line between customer service and showing common decency and curteousy that should be shown to all no matter what. Yes I agree nurses should be kind and polite to...

  11. Nurses Don't Accept Gifts

    nrw350 replied to roxannekkb's topic in General Nursing

    I really think that it should be the way as you describe it. Because I would think that some would stretch the current rule of no gifts so far as to include hugs in that rule. Surely there is not...

    nrw350 replied to TexasCRNA's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

  18. Night shift nurses are lazy and NICU isn't real nursing!

    nrw350 replied to NICU_Nurse's topic in General Nursing

    Ok, now I see what you were saying. I am not used to dealing with people who have behavioral problems. But I am used to dealing with those who are not rational (but not in the fashion that you deal...

    nrw350 replied to NICU_Nurse's topic in General Nursing

    nrw350 replied to NICU_Nurse's topic in General Nursing

    The simplest answer to this debate is that simple fact that these people have nurse in their title and job description. Now, how can you argue that they do not nurse?

    nrw350 replied to spineCNOR's topic in Operating Room

    I would like to say, what good are the cash cows when the nurses quit and the surgeons start to have care for all the patients themselves?
