    Agnus replied to nardongputik2's topic in General Nursing

  4. Are you ashamed of being a nurse?

    Proud. Never doubted for one second that the vast majority here would respond this way. Why because we are FREE to leave if it shames us. Human nature is such that as long as we have that...

    Agnus replied to mdwRN's topic in General Nursing

    Agnus replied to iliel's topic in General Nursing

    Agnus replied to tgibson3770's topic in General Nursing

    Gwenith, I hope you are not suggesting that we hide these abuses? Many are already public record and others should be. I do understand about protecting our image but abuse needs to be public, or it...
