  1. Amber Does the Unthinkable

    DrVen1 replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    I would have taken the time out too. I'm surprised this is even an issue considering all she had to deal with. The rudeness was uncalled for though...í

  2. Ethics: Brain bleed sign out AMA

    DrVen1 replied to Kbig2's topic in General Nursing

    I so agree with what you said and I'm the same way about my No: respect it. I also wondered about the "wait until they're unconscious" part...how is that even ok? How is that any different than...

  4. Why do minorities have more respect for nurses?

    DrVen1 replied to Runman1914's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I agree. Africa is a continent made up of many different countries, cultures and languages....that being said, from what I've seen, more often than not, nurses are indeed held in very high

    DrVen1 replied to Runman1914's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    DrVen1 replied to Runman1914's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    The attitudes of African Americans towards Caucasians are completely different from that of West Indians, Africans and other people of color not born in America. The latter tend to (not always) have a...

  10. Why do minorities have more respect for nurses?

    DrVen1 replied to Runman1914's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Nurses have status similar to doctors in a lot of overseas countries. In many cases they are the doctors! My husband is from Africa and over there becoming a nurse is almost like a status symbol...so...

  11. Should I wait to have a baby?

    DrVen1 replied to AHobbs's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I also have to side with the "have the baby now" club....people take for granted the act of carrying and having a baby because generally most women have babies no problem. But it is so true that as...
