    uRNmyway replied to 2k15NurseExtern4u's topic in General Students

    HEY don't make me put you guys in your rooms!! What is it about people that you can't just be happy with your own personal beliefs, you just HAVE to try to convert everyone to think as you do. So you...

    The line that makes me want to hurt someone, aka 'That's not my job!'

    uRNmyway posted a topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I don't know what it is about the holidays that makes everyone so frickin self centered, but I swear, if I hear this line uttered in my presence ONE MORE TIME I will scream. I really will. Outside of...

    A worried young girl desperate to be a nurse

    uRNmyway replied to crjenkins01's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    Sorry to disappoint you. Although my instinct is to give you a Mama-style slap in back of the head and tell you that you should have known better, I'll instead encourage you to read what I'm sure are...

    uRNmyway replied to crjenkins01's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    Issue probably won't be with nursing school. All the for-profit scum bags will gladly take your money and promise you the moon. The problem will be with the BON giving you a licence, then finding an...

    Not wanting to take care of male resident

    uRNmyway replied to MileyFans's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    My very first day in clinical, I received my introduction to nursing in all it's glory. We were only supposed to communicate with our patients. No actual care. So I am sitting on a bench in front of...

    uRNmyway replied to AtomicxKitten's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Oh geez. Way to be judgmental. Some women have a difficult time connecting with their child until it is born and in their arms. Some also don't really connect for days after birth. Doesn't make them...

    Lol. Sometimes I have to stop myself from my automatic answers. We're training our toddler with manners right now. I'm so used to automatically saying 'What's the magic word?/What do we say...

    Prejudice in Nursing

    uRNmyway replied to registerednurse3's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Oh Lord. Guys, we have been so foolish. This is clearly not a case of racism or prejudice. I fear it had become a case of.... Nurses eatiing their young! It must be because women are evil, catty,...

    Prejudice in Nursing

    uRNmyway replied to registerednurse3's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Seriously, I had noticed that. But I was also afraid I'd be called a racist. But now that someone else had taken the heat for it, I hole heartedly agree.

    Prejudice in Nursing

    uRNmyway replied to registerednurse3's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    If it bothers you that much, maybe get your name badge to say RN. Or wear a lab coat over your scrubs, if your facility allows. I guess that's one of the advantages of uniforms with colors to match...

    Prejudice in Nursing

    uRNmyway replied to registerednurse3's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Are you for real? Where in the world did you get that? I said that discrimination is wrong, no matter who the target is. What I said was that I haven't seen, or heard, of any instances of Caucasian on...

    Prejudice in Nursing

    uRNmyway replied to registerednurse3's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    uRNmyway replied to plinytheRN's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    Ah, the hospital I work for, bed control has no actual control. The doctor places the request for the specific bed they want, bed control just calls to request the bed. All they see is admitting...

    Prejudice in Nursing

    uRNmyway replied to registerednurse3's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Oh, and to add, this mentality had really been a double edged sword. Where I currently work, not ONE SINGLE TIME have I seen any instances of AA people get discriminated against or treated badly...

    Prejudice in Nursing

    uRNmyway replied to registerednurse3's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Lol, prejudice isn't only about ethnic background. You realize your own post reeked of prejudice. You assume that this nurse with an associates is advancing because she is white? So, what? An...
