  6. racist patients

    I wish you were right. Had a man in the ER let his kid die while waiting for a white doctor from the next county because no t***l head was gonna touch his boy. How far are you willing to go? If it was...

  13. Combative Patients/Body cams/Walkie talkies

  19. Bullying while working as NP

    Perhaps the definition of bullying has changed. Every time someone says something about you that is not a compliment does not make them a bully. A jerk maybe but not a bully. A supervisor who gives...
  20. Yep. Nurses do "eat their young"

    There is a difference between wanting to be respected and wanting to be treated the SAME as a trusted veteran. You know, everyone gets the same size

  24. Disturbing Conversation on Overweight Healthcare Workers

    Sorry, I did not see this before I posted. There is a difference between someone who has failed in the past and is now successful and someone who has never done well and only has excuses. How can you...
