Can I please get a new nurse?

how is this a universal experience?

male high school bullies: become cops

female high school bullies: become nurses

As a nursing student, I can attest to the amount of bullying and horrible behavior I’ve seen from fellow nursing students. One of the students in my school’s nursing program got kicked out because she was bullying her own patient…

My mom is also a nurse and she has both witnessed AND personally experienced bullying from her fellow nurses. My dad is a nurse as well and has had his own coworkers try to sabatoge him.

This is called “lateral/horizontal violence” and it’s sadly prevalent in the Nursing profession.

it goes as deep as the billing offices for hospitals too. i cant tell yall how much highschool drama my mom has had to deal with in 20 years of billing.

My mother was bullied by a DOCTOR. A male doctor. 30 years old, still inexperienced. My mother had a part of her finger chipped off because of an accident. It was bleeding profusely and my mother was half conscious. The bastard wounded her more than he tried to stop the bleeding. Mom begged him to stop and he just kept scolding her while scraping more of her finger off for the ‘procedure’, or so he claimed. Me, my brother, and our dad had him disbarred and shamed after the fact. I wanted to beat his head in. Thinking this still sends chills down my spine. If I’m getting a mild panic attack just for recounting this horrific experience, just imagine how much worse my mother had it. She was literally being tortured until she’d pass out.

when i was 18 my lung had collapsed. after the first surgery to get it fixed i was being monitered fora day to make sure it did indeed fix it. a few hours after after waking from it i felt really really bad. like my lung felt even worse than it did when i came in. i told the nurse and she was being rude like my lung recollapsing was inconvenient. we demanded that i get an xray and i could SEE how collapsed it was. even after all that fuss, she didnt tell my doctor and he had no idea until the following morning 6 hours later when i got the xray that i was already scheduled to have. it was around 40% collapsed. I spent the entire night wondering if i was going to die to this bitch of a nurse who refused to do her job.
