  1. New Grad...need help dealing with super negative staff!

    kty1 replied to ZenStudent's topic in First Year After Licensure

    loved what you said: "complainers love an audience". this is so very true. we all know that everyone complaines once in a while which is normal, but if you have someone who complains on a day to day...

  2. How do I handle insubordinate CNAs?

    kty1 replied to ginnieann's topic in First Year After Licensure

    you are so..........correct in stating that you must speak their language. there are so...many bad cna's and i don't get it. i have had to deal with some really nasty ones who will actually lie about...

    shame on all who were involved in turning a blind eye to this

  6. I am an American.

    kty1 replied to UnionRN2's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    i agree, as i also have had wonderful experiences dealing with all cultures. however, there are some dr's. (as noted in op) that can be very rude and indifferent of other cultures outside their own...

  7. I am an American.

    kty1 replied to UnionRN2's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    That's just the point, all dr's, nurses that travel outside their country are given documents, classes, etc that are the norms for the particular country they are relocating to. If the dr. had a...

  8. I am an American.

    kty1 replied to UnionRN2's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    You obviously have a right to your opinions, but going back on all your posts it seems that you are defending this dr.as if you know him on a personal level. Have you ever worked outside the US?...

  9. I am an American.

    kty1 replied to UnionRN2's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    If you go back to the OP, you will see he is not from America. The posts relate to OP's concerns. Again, when one comes to America to practice there are papers to sign, read etc.; all about the...

  10. I am an American.

    kty1 replied to UnionRN2's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    whatever culture one comes from is fine, but when working in america then one needs to abide by the contract signed before coming here to work. no need to be rude to anyone, especially a peer that...

  12. I am an American.

    kty1 replied to UnionRN2's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    i simply stated my opinion on an op and did not "judge" this doctor, but exposed something that happens almost daily in many hospitals. i cannot begin to say what happened during that conversation...

  13. I am an American.

    kty1 replied to UnionRN2's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I'm sorry if you thought i was being rude to you. Not at all. I only wanted you to stick to the OP and not stray fro the original comments that have already been made. Again, I was not rude in any...

  14. I am an American.

    kty1 replied to UnionRN2's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    if you remember your history, then explaining this question would be null. once again i will explain from the first posts that was posted many months ago; if a person from another country applies to...

  16. I am an American.

    kty1 replied to UnionRN2's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    This is not a case of who is right or wrong. When in America, do what is expect of you and that is use good sound values, morals and respect for others. When medical professionals (or anyone for...

  17. I am an American.

    kty1 replied to UnionRN2's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    very true, however, if you come to america then you are expected to respect the way our profession is. when i am talking with a doctor i expect him to give me the same respect he expects from me....

    kty1 replied to UnionRN2's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Again off the original post, hower this statement is very true and I'm happy to comply if ever in such a situation. Just read a book and stay to yourself. lol,lol,..but true I'm

  19. I am an American.

    kty1 replied to UnionRN2's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I believe we are talking about eye contact when dealing on a one to one in our professions: dr to nurse, nurse to patient etc; not total strangers riding in a train. I think you lost the point of...

  22. Going to Nursing School at an Older Age

    kty1 replied to AmaurosisFugax's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    unfortunately, you are correct!! so many older graduates do face this kind of discrimination since employers want the young nurses' due to longevity instead of giving due consideration for life...

  23. I am an American.

    kty1 replied to UnionRN2's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    i think we need to look at curiousme's point, as its well taken by many. if one comes to america it's for many reasons, however it's not to make american's bow down to "another's" culture. before...

    kty1 replied to Guest296136's topic in General Nursing

    Is irish 6363 for real? Sorry girl, that is not reality! I speak several languages and would NEVER be so rude to speak to others in anything else but English. When I go to Spain, I will speak...

    kty1 replied to Guest296136's topic in General Nursing
