Leno is full of CRAP!!!

I agree to participate by my own free will and choice. 1. 9yrs 2.3yrs,diploma program,Memphis,Tn. 3.3 all 3 graduated 4.60 to start, 14 graduated 5.4. 6.8. 7.Director of Community Health, Telemedicine for 3 yrs. 8.ER,ICU-memphis, Home Health,ICU 9. one, and none 10.3 and none 11.As my Christian calling to serve. 12. At first, mixed, mature adults understood and were supportive. 13.Yes, "do the lifting" 14. Yes, it has been my experience that men do the job, and get it done, without all the bickering, and griping. 15. No, just as equal. 16. Equally as tough. 17. It will grow as we prove that it is the care that is given, not male or female, of who gave it. 18. Until the stereotype is done away with, but with the mentality of the likes as JAY LENO, it will probably be viewed as a female profession. All nurses need to avoid referring it as a "female" profession. It is actually, "a profession."!

Dplear, I agree!!! What a great observation. I've never thought about it.

I agree with the above posts. But it makes it easier on all of us, nurses, doctors, and especially the family members if the patient has a living will and has discussed this issue with their family. I have a living will and every year I look it over and remind my wife where it is and what it says. She doesnn't like it but she knows it is necessary. I also have told my workmates in the ER and ICU what my wishes are and that I have it written in the living will. It also has to do with what your beliefs are. Again, family discussion is so important.
