    HairyMurse posted a topic in Nursing Professionalism

  2. "My Nurses"

    HairyMurse posted a topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    When I was in the OR the other day for a minor procedure (I was the patient), I asked the MD a question and he said "I'll ask one of my nurses." Then again, before I was discharged, he informed me to...

  4. "My Nurses"

    HairyMurse replied to HairyMurse's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I don't think it's that, I still don't like it when it comes out of females. I just wish we could all call each other by our proper titles. E.g. Bob will be your nurse today," or "Bill will be the...

  11. "My Nurses"

    HairyMurse replied to HairyMurse's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Yeah that makes sense. The more I think about it, that's probably the easiest way to explain who is who. I suppose I just didn't like the docs way of stating it and the negative (superior sounding)...

    HairyMurse replied to HairyMurse's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations
