you all take yourselves way too seriously

lol, really?! yet, nurses turn to techs for everything but you think it's laziness!!!??... ok.

Not all CNA's and MA's do this!! You are making it seem like it happens majority of the time. When I am quite sure that this is not the case!! Quite a few nurses that I have worked wiith are very lazy and think that they are up and above PCT's and I would NEVER feel the need to lie about being one of them!! Most times, patients have better experiences with their tech's/ NA's because we spend the most time with them. If this is happening as much as you are so called witnessing this, then why are you viewing it in such a bad manner!? why not view it as an honor to be admired so much??? Technically as a CNA- Certified NURSING Assistant THEY are are assistant nurses.. I don't see what the big deal is... BESIDES any PCT/ NA that lies about being a nurse will get caught up eventaully because they won't have all the nswers that the nurse has to give to a patient when they start asking questions. I am a CNA/ PCT, AND A MA and I have NEVER identified myself as a NURSE!!

wow that almost made me cry!!

lol omg I would have a ball with you at work!!

What is the busiest day at your hospital and what unit do you work on? Just Curious. I work Cardiac Telemetry and every day seems really busy but Mondays take the cake!!

How long did it take to complete your BSN at Chamberlain? Was it exactly 3 years... or a little less than 3 years and what were the options for the days to take classes? I work fulltime days 12 hour shifts / 3 days a week and was thinking of going to the wekends . Did you have any Friday classes or clinicals there?

keep trying!! I was thinking about Chamberlain too but I just don't want to pay so much.. I'm in Georgia so there are several community colleges that offer nursing. Good luck to you!!

I don't know why but I don't believe that a school told you some non sense like that... did you even ask the school?? Heck google could have given you better answers smh:no:

No, you didn't do anything wrong but you know how hospital politics go...the doctors are "never wrong". I am a PCT and in my case the RN or DR. is never wrong. it's a chain of command type of thing. I do know of a RN that went to HR on a Dr. before and he was written up and she still has her job so there was no retaliation in her case but She is in a position that she doesn't need her job, she just chooses to work.. I don't know your situation but My advice to you is to pray about it and let it work it's self out. God sees all!! If this Dr. was so quick to ly off the handle over something so simple, he's bound to do it again!! I am so sorry that THAT Dr. disrespected you! Please don't let it effect your work ethic!!:)
