Would you agree with this statement?

I'm writing a paper for my sociology class, on an article titled, "The World of the Hospital" It is written by an author who did his field work in a hospital, observing nurses. In the article is a quote from a nurse: "You get to the point where you don't really care for the patients anymore and one GI (gastrointestinal) bleeder gets to be the same as the next GI bleeder."

I'm just curious about how you all feel about this statement, because I really have high regard for nurses and don't think the majority of nurses would agree with this statement. Any responses/comments would be greatly appreciated! :redpinkhe

And unfortunately, "Failure to get their #*$&@ together" is not a valid NANDA diagnosis.

ROFL....are you sure? 'Cause I could use that one on a DAILY basis
