lime ihave 11 piercings in each ear. i never take them out. 2 in my nose. 1 in my eyebrow. they are moderate in size. 5 tattoos. i have not had a problem with them yet. i am an icu nurse . no person has ever gone for them. no made remarks. when people are sick , they are more concerned with your skills. and how you act towards them. i consider myself extremely professional. i am certified in many things. people need to look past looks. unless they are vulgar.

EMBRACE WHO YOU ARE!!! YOUR TATTOOS HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH YOUR PROFESSIONAL SKILLS. YOU ARE AN INDIVIDUAL WHO IS UNIQUE AND LOVES TO CARE FOR PEOPLE. A NURSING CAP AND WHITE SHOES DO NOT MAKE A NURSE. EXCELLENT SKILLS AND A LOVE OF HELPING PEOPLE DO. I BET MORE PEOPLE LIKE YOUR TATTOOS THEN DON'T. BE YOURSELF. GOOD LUCK

yes i have 5 tattoos. sometimes they show alittle but not much. why don't people realize we are people and have a life outside nursing! tattoos have nothing to do with my skills or professionalism. 1 have been in critical care 16 years with no probs. my pts respect the care i give them. i also have piercings, which have never been a prob to any pt. i hope you don't get discriminated against.
