a real piece one 'ere. :heartbeat:yeah:

yep, I believe Nursing is one of the hardest profession because of its very general and broad areas in caring. Nurses do too many things from being a teacher to counselor to advocate to caregiver to etcetera and etcetera. :wink2: Yep Nurses are superheroes...especially when we talk about compensation and stuff... I don't know I mean that's what I know with my limited/novice experience in Nursing.

that's funny. what does that mean?

If there will be a superhuman nurse and will serve in the Justice League:smokin:, what will be his/her name? Will it be: a.Nurseman/Nursewoman b.Supernurseman/Supernursewoman c.All of the above d.Write your own preference And what will it be his/her special powers? LOL

this is so nice and dramatic. but i liked it....

yeah, i read from a book that the first nurses were actually males. this was in India in the ancient times. and they were viewed as sacred and full of dedications and stuffs.

discrimination is a very bad bad thing... we are all the same, we are all humans, we are all creations of... well, i don't care if anyone discriminates me as a murse, as long as i know im doing the right thing and providing my very best nursing care to patients... and if my co workers will do those horrible things stated in your thesis, well, i'll f*** the heck their brains out and make them beg for my nursing care for more! i know what i mean. lol lol lol

i don't know, the term makes me laugh... it sounds like a name for an animal... or dumb or stupid... lol

for me, the real problem lies within the head of the individual. i mean, todays are the times of the survival of the thickest faces and he who lets things enter his mind (the negative attitudes of people towards) will likely get confused and troubled. nursing is about patients so this is an easier thought to think: "i am here to provide you my very caring and best nursing services and if you don't like me or it, well it's your loss."

I am learning a lot. Thanks. I chose nursing because this is what I wanted, I thought the job was cool until lately. I was careless from the beginning but I didn't want to change careers that fast... anyway. thanks okay.

none, just clarifying. thats all because i didnt have the chance to say so earlier.

I'm deeply troubled by my problem - so its like this, I am a guy who took up nursing as a study in college and in fact, not only did I enter the academe but I also graduated with the course five years after. Now my problem is this: I can' take care of people. Sometimes even myself, I forget to say, "hey, how are you doing today?" To at least have some readings other than these robotic books that are driving me crazy - there's too much theories I can't grab on one - I went to the internet and keyed in allnurses.com. I registered my name and my email to the site and excitedly typed in the thread, "I need help, a nurse not prepared for the job." That's all true, okay, nobody in school really asked me if this is what I really wanted, from the beginning of the class in my first year, we were presented with books that had too many illustrations about the person's body, etc and how to communicate with clients, take care of clients, what not to say to clients, what not to do infront of clients, what's this and that, anatomy and physiology, pathology, books, researches, nursing care plans... too many for me to handle. And then I graduated, I'm going to be a nurse in a few months. I enthusiastically read my books so I will pass the examination and then everything dawned on me, my foolishness during our hospital duties, the way I handled stressful cues from patients, the way I reacted to sickness within my family, the way I avoided handling critically ill patients by pseudo-reading my notebook, the way people affected me more than I should teach them, everything I did stupidly to just get through it. What I need is some external motivation on how to handle these stresses I have about being too sentimental or being too careless about people and their sickness. Some of you provided some ideas and some commented on my being me? I mean, I thought nurses should be nice and saying all the right things and stuffs. This particular situation is like this: I'm the patient asking you nurses on what to do (maybe some were that mean to motivate me you know, like kicking my ass to work... but really... why are you so mean?) Thanks for reading, okay, I read your comments and they're funny. I laughed them off:lol2:, just to get through it. I appreciated everything, even the admin. And I apologize for 'psycheing you'?, the heck? :cry::cry: i really dont want another problem to my problem...

I need help, I just graduated my bachelor's degree in nursing and I'm preparing myself for the examination. My problem is that - I can't take care of the sick. As I read my books and understand nursing and understand myself, I look back to where the situations stated in those books similar to mine. I have this psychological problem of seeing sick people, I hate sickness and agonies. I can't tolerate to see people lying on their beds and nearly dying. As I have experienced in my family, everytime there was a sick member in the house, I leave the house until that person got well. I don't want to see my mom sick, my brother and everybody... What shall I do...? thanks
