What are you going to do, ask them if they'd like to hear about the Gospel of Jesus? I'm just trying to figure out how you're getting the conversation rolling. Do you mean you'll spread your word if...

And just how are you going to go about finding out they don't want to hear about the Gospel of Jesus? And actually, it is a huge deal. Can I get an "Amen" to

What part of meeting the pts. needs, not yours is so dificult for people to understand? It is inappropriate to be prostelytizing to your pts., period. That goes for any faith, Christian, Wiccan,...
Any nurse who wants to do strike work has to know that it's going to be a hot-button issue. If that's what the nurse wants to do, fine...but then he/she needs to have the spine for it. I care too...
You are an administrator. I admire your resolve to back your nurses, but you must know that you are only one person, and there are many other people who can influence a nurse's decision to leave. Not...

It is very presumptuous to say to a pt. "I will pray for you" if the pt did not ask you to do so. Don't be so sure you wouldn't get into trouble; people of many faith backgrounds go to Catholic...
It's not my job (our nursing's job) to increase MA's self-esteem over their career choice by allowing them to commit fraud by passing themselves off as nurses. Be proud of what you've chosen to do and...

This is a true incident: I was in the hospital and a "friendly visitor" from the chaplain's office came to my room. I didn't ask for the visit. This guy was w/c bound. He started "ministering" to me....

Tell him to grow up. For goodness sake, four hours commuting...whose side is he on? Does he not see that beside the cost of commuting, there's a risk for you being on the road all that time? With...

That's true, you have to consider the audience. Most national network news is more like "McNews." You get little bites, kind of tasty, but not a lot of substance. If it was enough to cause Joe Sixpack...

This nurse is clearly out of bounds. She is putting herself in the position of the Almighty, deciding if someone is "right' with God and seeming to know where that person is going to spend eternity....
