***Official Political Discussion Thread***

where did I say u needed a degree to become someone who draws blood and take pressure? go quote it.

I SAID you're a RN (Registered Nurse) with a 2 year degree.

all that other subjective bull **** about delegated responsibilities is irrelevant to da point.

You also said it takes 4 years to become an NP


You know nothing, NINJAHOOD.
 
Guess that varies place to place, your hospital taking RNs with associates and throwing them right into the ICU setting? That's insane

oh is that what the issue was?

i thought you were just talking nurses right out of school in to ICU

im honestly not sure about the 2 year degree nurses. 

tbh i don't think our hospital takes 2 year degree nurses unless you have good experience
 
Why is there a nursing debate going on here all of a sudden?

I was close to finishing my first year in my nursing bachelor (which would've granted me a "nursing assistant" degree over here) but then the chronic disease came along

It's a pretty physically demanding job so unless I magically get cured I won't be able to pursue it again.

Nah I guess the whole putting them through 3 years of MedSurge practical experience before touching the ICU even with a BSN is a thing my spot does...but I guess some other spots might just toss them in there right out of school, but I'm gonna put my bet on them being BSNs and Not nurses with 2 year degrees anyhow :lol:
 
Yeah let's get back to politics....

So Trump assigns a neuro surgeon to run Housing and NH thinks all it takes is 2 years to become a nurse....they are pretty much the same person....lol
 
Male nurses are always top notch, I don't know why. :lol:  I sleep easy when a male nurse is taking care of my patient, they don't call me for sh..unless someone is bout to die.


Male nurses and old Filipino/Jamaican nurses >>>>>>>

Hope you get better. 

Yoooo now that I think about it...you right...a male nurse stay on top of their game, a female nurse will call me to come and do the most trivial **** like teah an incentive spirometer or strap on a nasal cannula to their patient, none of my male RN coworkers bother me for that type of **** :lol:
 
Since we on the subject,how much RN's making where you guys live...I know plenty of guys in my HS graduating class went that route.
 
Man, reading so much news can make you exhausted. That's why I've narrowed my reading down to just a few outlets. Information overload is real.

You got to school to learn how to think. Well, undergraduate at a university, specifically. You don't go there to learn a trade.

It's why we require MDs in this country to have a bachelor's degree and often that includes calculus, writing classes, physics, chemistry, and humanities.

My class actually had a fairly high amount of guy to girl ratio. The staff said they've been seeing a pretty big increase in male nursing students over the last few years. There's much less of the "male nurses are gay" stereotyping too. Rarely encountered such comments.

Being chronically ill, it definitely helps that I can actually understand and discuss what the specialists handling my case are talking about. And I can do my own injections etc of course.

I remember back in the day.... Nursing school was 10% male, and only 10% of those males were straight.

Definitely a great option if you're that 1 straight nurse.

Of course things are shifting now and nursing is not being viewed as much of a female-only field.

And I agree on the male nurses being almost always good. Plenty of female nurses are really good at their job too, of course.
