  4. African American patients - a cultural question

    Dexterosa replied to 0.adamantite's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    No need for crystal ball on my side. Maybe necessity to comprehend a written word on your would be sufficient. I wrote: "The reason is, some of them, one portion of those ignoring African Americans is...

  5. African American patients - a cultural question

    Dexterosa replied to 0.adamantite's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    As I believe I said - some of them give attitude to white nurses only. Only and only and only one ethnicity. That fully fit the word of racist. (If I omit the comment about white potato, they gave to...

  6. Hostile work environment - Violent Doctor

    Dexterosa replied to Summer70's topic in General Nursing

    Dexterosa replied to 0.adamantite's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

  11. Hostile work environment - Violent Doctor

    Dexterosa replied to Summer70's topic in General Nursing

    What I think about it: Oothers said, that the actions are not public and they are only between the MD and superior. Huh, that is true. Now think about it. Who the superior is? The director who hired...

  12. Sabotaging in nursing

    Dexterosa posted a topic in General Nursing

  14. Strike nursing

    Dexterosa replied to trulefty's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    Dexterosa replied to alexandrajenkins's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  21. Scared to admit I am a RN who cares

    Dexterosa replied to madwife2002's topic in General Nursing

    Dexterosa replied to 2k15NurseExtern4u's topic in General Nursing
