  4. I am sure you will find opinions for everything on the internet. Some do object and some do not. Yes they should object, but after that they still do the job. Sad, but true. You can object and refuse...

  7. What's your opinion on nurses dating doctors?

    Thank You. You can't say that I'm boring. I was just reflecting on how a new nurse was constantly asked out by doctors. I asked her why she rebuffed all of them, and she basically said that doctors...

  16. Switching Careers from Nursing because I hate it so much

  23. Being written up

    Wait what?!?! The pt accused the CNA of abuse. You lied and said you weren't in the room. You admit that you knew that it never happened, the family thinks you planted the idea in her head (...
  24. I feel at times nurses only see the reality of their 12 hr shifts. When a pt is concerned about being evicted cause they arent home to pay rent, that concern is real for that pt. Yet to a nurse, they...
