If you have fb and are friends with any nurses...chances are you have already seen this posted.

quote:

In perhaps one of the most demeaning statements on the nursing profession since Joy Behar’s 2015 “doctor’s stethoscope” comments on The View, Washington State Senator Maureen Walsh proclaimed on the Senate floor that Critical Access Hospital nurses should be exempt from protections in mandatory overtime because they sit around and play cards most of the day:


quote:

“I understand… making sure that we have ‘rest breaks’ and things like that. But I also understand that we need to care for patients first and foremost… I would submit to you that those [critical access hospital] nurses probably do get breaks! They probably play cards for a considerable amount of the day!”
– -Sen. Maureen Walsh 4/16/19 comments on SHB 1155, a bill eliminating loopholes in mandatory overtime


This Washington Senator is gonna learn the hard way....don't piss off the entire nursing profession.

I wont bother with a lot of hot air, I'll just say that nurses are one of the professional groups that does not get the respect it deserves. That goes for a lot of people that work along the medical tree. Doctors get the glory, but the professionals around them make the wheels keep spinning.

Okay, so when you need brain surgery, you going to ask for the nurse?

Yep. That Senator has done a dangerous thing. Hope she doesn’t need any critical care nursing anytime soon.

Has nothing to do with what I said. Out of curiosity who do you think assist, sets up the room, and all the other things that go into surgery.

It's okay to acknowledge the people behind the doctor. Giving credit to others doesn't take away from the doctor...

Hope he never ends up in an ER. Nurses, use the extra sticky tape on the hairy parts.

Um...yes? Do you think it’s just the one surgeon in the OR?
