  3. My rights after pt assault

    Don't trust a third party to have your best interests at heart, ever. Some do, most don't, so make sure YOU do what's best for you. I would refuse to have him. I have refused patients before and...

  11. Do RNs get extra pay for working with students?

    What....? "This back and forth bickering" was all you. I am so confused as to why you went ballistic for no reason and rehashed the same stuff that a dozen other people have
  12. Rant - How should *I* know?

    Ahhh, you totally missed the point. To continue your analogy, it's like a birder wannabe asking, "Do yellow-bellied finches fly over Niagara Falls in the spring?" to someone from California. How...

    She's a student, so she's not on call. And I have seen all of the above mentioned professions at a bar in their uniforms/work clothes. Nurses shouldn't be held to some imaginary standard that others...
