    Question for the doctors in this group:

    Do nurses kiss your asses?

    Don't we wish?

    LOL! Obviously toolz doesn't work in medical practice, does he?

    I did not say that nurses are not needed, and as you say, dedicated.

    But you did appear to be saying that nurses are so subservient that they
    "kiss the doctor's ass."

    Actually, let's look back at what you said, since it's no longer in the
    thread. I think it's of value to remind people of your ENTIRE statement:

    <BEGIN>

    If YOU think that Jan is so wrong, stupid, bad. Why do you think that YOU
    need to save us from her? Why do you think that YOU are best qualified to
    determine this? Your "education"? You were taught to defer to the doctor,
    that's all. Why do you think it is ok to insult everyone with your
    assumed superiority? IF Jan IS so bad, wrong, evil, why do you think
    that the world could not see it for themselves?

    I think it might be that YOU are angry that you spent years taking orders
    from those who you were taught had more worth than you. I think you are
    attacking others here because you never had the courage and knowledge to
    do so in your professional life. YOU were only a nurse, someone who
    kisses ass for doctors. So you have morphed your self hate into blame of
    others, and ridicule of anything that does not come from the sweet lips
    of your former tormenters.

    <END>

    A pretty vicious attack, made more vicious by the obvious contempt for
    nurses you showed through your false generalizations about nurses being
    "taught to defer to the doctor, that's all." (That's certainly NOT all
    nurses are taught. it's not even WHAT they are taught anymore.)

    Quoted message said:

    My rant
    was in response to her crowing about how superior her opinion is because of
    her "education" over the last few weeks.

    Perhaps, but it certainly revealed some nastiness about you personally
    that perhaps you didn't plan on. Your view of nurses and nursing is
    clearly outdated and rather misogynistic.

    Quoted message said:

    Seems that some of you think a bit
    too highly of the benefits of "education". Can it help? Sure.Is it the only
    way? Of course not. You need to understand that your way, is NOT the only
    way.

    Perhaps not, but you haven't been able to show your way is better (or at
    least equal).

    Are you fully conversant with the role of modern nursing? I have yet to
    meet *one* nurse who "kisses ass/[censored] for doctors". They are respected
    as valued members of a multi-disciplinary team, and in my experience,
    constantly question and evaluate other members of that team.

    They are *not*, as you infer "menials" who are subserviant to the

    nurse.

    Probably. My wife dedicated 31/2 yrs of her life to a nursing degree
    (after being one of the "old school" ward trained) and a further 3yrs to
    her Grad Dip in Health Promotion. Add to that, 12 yrs "hands on" nursing
    and I guess I'd be safer not introducing her to this thread ;-)

    Indeed. For someone who so clearly considers himself to be so
    enlightened

    Just where did I say that I consider myself "enlightened"?

    Your attitude suggests as much, as does your disparagement of those
    around here who are more educated than you--not to mention your
    statement below.

    Quoted message said:

    I', just smarter
    and far more observant of real life than you are.

    You have shown no evidence in your postings that this is true. Indeed,
    the content of your ramblings suggests otherwise.

    Quoted message said:

    No big deal. I'm not so
    insecure as you. I do not need to go on an NG and spout off about my degree,
    or my imaginary publishing.

    If that's true, why does it bother you so much when others mention their
    degrees or publications? It sounds to me as though such mentions make
    you insecure.
