agreed that lots of female instructors and floor nurses will regard/report any male as aggressive if they don't like them personally. it's the golden ticket to getting rid of someone that makes them uncomfortable (in any way) or makes them feel inade...

you sound like a more assertive person that would not be happy in anything less than an autonomous role. if so, nursing below the MSN level is not for you. i entered nursing school after a long career in engineering and came to the same conclusion at...

what you need to be in clinicals depends on the character of your instructor and the floor nurses that you are working with. if you cannot adapt to their comfort level then you are toast. this gets tricky, and sometimes every relationship is an indiv...

coming into nursing from an engineering background i must say that during clinicals i was among the better educated students both in general, and in terms of the human physiology and nursing/medical practice. my answers were consistently more in dept...

OB is a special place, and the floor nurses can be very territorial there. in my case, the floors were lifers on gravy duty and didn't want ANY students on the floor to rock their pleasure boat. the CNA on OB were just as bad as the RN. some spurious...

the lack of status identification in nursing uniforms seen recently has left our clients confused about the roles we occupy. with everyone in spongebob scrubs it is now impossible to tell who is an RN and who is an NA. if our patients saw us in unifo...

Hello, people. this is not about nursing risk as much as it is about patient safety. Let's try thinking about the patient, instead of ourselves, for once. God help the nurse who drops me on the floor because they can't handle a little physical labor...

no you can't. if you do it is unlawful imprisonment, which is a felony in every state. there goes your liscense, and jail time is not out of the question.

if i called it pathological i would prolly be dinged, yeah?

this much is clear. the issue has to do with the female inability to seperate the personal life from the worklife. in general, most will agree, males seperate the personal life and goals/desires from the work life more easily than females. speaking ...
