    Jenni811 replied to nursetana's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

  10. nurse rights

    Jenni811 replied to nursetana's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Good question. If my patients ask me my last name I just chuckle and say "oh you'll never be able to pronounce it." Truth is any English speaking person could pronounce it. I just don't want people...

  15. What's REALLY with the hospitals using Magnet as a cover for wanting BSN only nurses?

    Jenni811 replied to foreverLaur's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the definition of a professional mean an expert on a certain area? For example a doctor is a professional because they specialize. A nurse that specializes in...
