    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN posted a topic in General Nursing

    Why do LPN's get so disrespected?

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to Health-Nut's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    LPN/RPNs get disrespected because low level humans see them as an outlet to take their personal insecurities out on. I agree with iluvdetroit... also, I was quite disturbed by the comments made...

    Patients Filming You

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to Anonymous666's topic in General Nursing

    I'm in Canada--healthcare is publicly funded but provincially mandated--the legislation is different here because we don't rely on "Medicare dollars" and patients are not "immune" to the law. Not sure...
