Good doctors and good nurses make excellent recoveries. We count on you to communicate to us things we aren’t able to see - we are extensions of ‘our medical brain’, like the tentacles of a beautiful medical octopus❤
Why do people insist on using the "provider" word. As a future physician and former nurse, this makes me crazy. Provider is rude I don't know why it's becoming mainstream.
I am UM/UR nurse for 18 years now I catch on average 47 errors per week. I am actually working atm… well supposed to be and just checked my report. I have been at work 3 hour or so and have caught 3. Most suffer from confirmation bias, recency bias, and the dreaded hubris. Nurses never ever ever apologize for calling a doc and if I ever hear a nurse tell a doc your patient. You say our patient. Unless you work in private practice setting you need to know your org chart. I never have nor ever will accept a doc trying to dress me down I spent 8 years in the Marines you will only make me laugh 😂.
I watched this clip with interest. However, when I read your post I had to speak up. "I am actually working atm..." MY HUSBAND IS A RETIRED NURSE AND HE WAS THE ONE ANSWERING CALL BUTTONS FOR OTHER NURSES WHEN THEY WERE TOO BUSY ON RUclips AND FACEBOOK. YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF.
@@JustMe-gh7ib calm down I work from home I do not take care of patients anymore. I remote in to my hospital with a VPN and haven’t even seen a patient in 8 years. Nursing has dozens of specialties and sub specialties. Read the room and spend 5 seconds googling a UM Nurse before you hit that comment button. But super happy you are supporting the hard working bedside nurses, they deserve the love. Peace!
I absolutely think that nurses are equally important. They can also be abusive, bullies and need to take responsibility for THEIR mistakes especially on the times when they weren’t in a conversation between a patient and doctor. Now doctors can be like that too! I’m very much an equal opportunist when it comes to the arrogance and attitudes in health care (btw that all includes admin staff and allied health staff and even cleaning and kitchen staff!). Everyone has a role and each role is actually important….. and there is only ONE essential role…. The patient. That’s it. No patients, no jobs for anyone! I’m ever thankful for people who do their jobs, I’m ecstatic when people excel at their jobs especially without expecting a pat on the back for a job they chose AND get paid for!!! I say this because I’ve been on both sides and again, everyone has an important role to play which also means everyone takes responsibility for their actions (and mistakes) and when we start viewing it that way instead of us versus them….. life is far better for EVERYONE!!
Now if nurses would learn to properly collect, label and transport specimens to the lab, we wouldn't have to correct so many of your mistakes. Bad samples are the #1 hold up of lab results!!
46 year RN here…you are dead on!
Preach! People have no idea of the REAL nurse/doctor dynamic
There is an old saying , be nice to your nurse. We prevent doctors from killing you.😅
Thank you for all that you do
