"I would never want you as my nurse!"

Published

When people at allnurses get upset with others, and they can't think of anything else to say, they say "I would never want you as my nurse! ".

Can't we just all get along? :jester:

I won't ever come online and attack nurses who insist on getting patients undressed with the privacy curtains open and who immediately pull open a curtain that I pulled shut. I won't say anything about the ones who violate the patient confidentiality for their own entertainment. I won't mention people I've worked with who insist on leaving helpless patients facing toward the window with the sun burning their eyes out. I won't mention people who think it's funny to hit the patient's head on the bed board when they re-position them. Keeping away from character assassination can take a lot of self-control when you see someone abuse a patient and especially when it was a deliberate choice and not the result of human error. I have had people tell me, "just think of yourself like a machine that needs to get fixed and leave your feelings out of this....If we didn't think you were capable of working in healthcare, we would have let you leave like everyone else did..." Those are the ones I trust.

oh my god are you seeing all these horrible things where you work? If you are I hope you reported every instance of abuse! If you're not saying anything to correct abuse it's just as bad as doing it yourself!

I don't want any of you as my nurses... BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO BE IN THE FLIPPING HOSPITAL. (true story)

I love my nurses in the hospital unit i go to. They're fun to talk and enjoy making them laugh and I learn alot from them. I tend to talk too much so other patients will get mad at me for keeping them to long :)

I try to make it easy for them by being the easy patient such as making my own bed,no bed bath, bringing my food tray out to the hallway and tidying up my own room. Than i'm told, don't get out of bed! I'm a fall risk!

Me a fall risk at 35 years old??? No way!
