Thank You for Nothing

:redpinkheBless you, and all PICU nurses, for doing what I could never do in a million years. Bless you.......and thank you.

This tough old PICU nurse has something in her eye...

I stopped reading after the first sentence. I do not feel that it is a nurses job to make patients better. A nurses job is advocate and care for patients as they progress through their life span, whatever that life span may be.

Actually, the very next paragraph states that it is a PICU nurses job to fix children.....i am just a student but I see many nurses with this mindset and it limits their practice....Just saying...

In all seriousness, this is why I hate working with children and am dreading doing my peds rotation soon.

Quote from VivaLasViejasAs a student and NOT a nurse yet, you may be better served if you would shut the front door and LISTEN to what nurses are talking about, before you judge what sort of "mindset" they should have.Just saying........
