    Anonymous survey on Hospital Nurses

    FireStarterRN replied to charlitsweb's topic in General Nursing

    I took your survey, and although it had some good parts, I thought it was flawed. It seemed biased toward coming up with a particular conclusion. It was also repetitive, in my opinion. I also think it...

    What do you think about Physician Assistants?

    FireStarterRN replied to life_aknew's topic in General Nursing

    I think the wave of the future is the mid-level practitioner, both Physician Assistants and Nurse Practitioners. I've noticed that several PAs act like they walk on water, however, and are rude and...

    Co- worker troubles

    FireStarterRN replied to michael79's topic in General Nursing

    She sounds very unprofessional. You should act professionally and not get caught up in this melodrama. In my opinion, you should just let the storm pass, they'll all be on to some new topic of...

    Anyone ever get off "the" List?!

    FireStarterRN replied to medsurgrnco's topic in General Nursing

    I think the key is to stay off the bad-list in the first place. Once you are on the bad-list, it's hard to break the stereotype or prejudice that someone has against you. That reminds me of my...
