   BrewerLPN replied to BrewerLPN's topic in Relations

   Thanks! I feel like I am being attacked for asking the question... I have read so many posts on how people are outraged that a coworker is calling themselves a nurse, but when I posted this some people seem to think it's ok or they say who cares... I...

   Yes she has more education than I do, but she is educated in sonography. Taking a jab at my education was not called for! I asked opinions and yours seems to be an angry one... Granted I asked and you are free to comment. I'm sure the fact that I am ...

5. Ultrasound Tech Telling Patients She is a Nurse

   BrewerLPN replied to BrewerLPN's topic in Relations

   She does everything I do plus ultrasound. In the vascular field, in MS anyway, the ultrasound tech is the one that assists in endovenous laser ablations and ultrasound guided Sclero because the procedure involves ultrasound guidance. Even when ultras...

   I agree! That is how I feel.. I don't have multiple credentials, but I am a nurse and I'm proud of it! For her to just throw it around is disrespectful. In all honesty she is more educated than I am, but she isn't a nurse!

    As long as the MS BON doesn't hold me accountable for not reporting it I don't care what she claims to be as long as its not a nurse ... I read multiple threads before posting this one and people were outraged that MAs were calling themselves nurses...

14. Ultrasound Tech Telling Patients She is a Nurse

    BrewerLPN replied to BrewerLPN's topic in Relations

    We are a vascular practice. We do in office procedures like ultrasound guided sclero, sclero, endovenous laser ablations, phlebectomy... She does everything a nurse would do plus her duties as a sonographer.
