  1. Dunno? replied to Blades's topic in General Nursing
    If the employers sees that you lied in your resume and employment application, there might be some issues..
  2. The reason why I say let it go because in the future there is going to be discrimination through out his career..And every time there is, will he go to the CEO or just move on? I would choose move on to another job while you would say complain and see if there is a change..He has only one semester left and that is a very short time..
  3. What will I tell a new nursing student....This might seem really harsh but I would say dont ever trust your co workers.."Nurses eat their young" really means "Nurses eat each other"
  4. I belive it was not the right choice..Many people face discrimination everyday such as minorities.....Speaking about it or prostesting will not change anything...It continues...Just my two cents..
  5. Why dont you do some research....Lives are at stake here and that is the most important issue to me....You are saying that you would let 2 people in an ambulance handle an emergency who was trained for only 4 weeks and they can do it without a paramedic....Read this: http://firstaid.about.com/od/emergencymedicalservices/qt/06_EMTBvsP.htm In the article it states: "Within the industry, it is very common to refer to a basic EMT as simply EMT, and to refer to EMT-Paramedics as paramedics."
  6. An EMT in California can be trained in 4 weeks..While community collleges in California train paramedics for about 9 months or more.. You tell this to a layman and you are going to have 2 EMTs who were trained for 4 weeks in an ambulance in an emergency, and see what you are going to end up with...As you said, EMT equals paramedics..That is what you are saying..I am not talking about levels..In an emergency, you have to react in what is going on...Call 911, and dont ask for a paramedic in the ambulance is lethal..
  7. A lot of people dont know that EMTs and paramedics are totally two different positions..A paramedic has more education than an EMT..An EMT can get trained in 4 months or less..But a paramedic needs about a year or more..That is in California..Like I know, when you call an ambulance or 911, make sure there is a paramedic in there and not just EMTs..My co worker mentioned this to me one time, when she called 911 and there was no life support for the patient because only EMTs where in the ambulance.. In short, an EMT is like a CNA and a paramedic is like a licensed nurse..
  8. Why do I hold such bitterness? Because, I remember how clinical instructors favor people..There was a 55 year old woman in my class and she was my friend..One of the clinical instructors behind her back called her, "slow" and she was put on probation.. It is hard to hold clinical instructors in high regard when I tried my best, and the instructor came out laughing his head off when he failed me.. But you see now I am a nurse..I just think that some clinical instructors are not always right..
  9. Let me tell you, that clinical instructors can fail a student for any reason..And that person can be safe also..
  10. You are saying that the clincal instructors are always right in failing a student.And sometimes that is not true..An instructor can have personality conflicts with a student..An instructor can favor some students than other students..That is just human nature..I remember when I failed my clincal..I did well in the classroom theory part..My clincal instructor was laughing his head off when he failed me..Really professional dont you think?
  11. You are wrong..A nursing instructor is not above anyone..The reason I belive this is because a clinical instructor failed me before..After I failied I went to another school...Now, I am a nurse and have been working for a year..What do I think about the clinical instructor who failed me? Well they are like a bad boss..
  12. I am scared of some CNAs...I dont dare even get near them because they will attack..LOL
  13. There was too much drama in my nursing school..I am glad that I dont see those people ever again..
  14. Oops, my bad..I thougtht it was the OP...sorry
  15. The patient requested that the aide can sleep...That is a supervision problem there..In home heatlh, the patient and the family are the supervisors..The home health agency does not supervise like how the family does...And it is not a child from reading the OP's post..
