John,
I would like to see an end to the turf war also.
But without discussion and dialogue will not be just swept under the rug until
the next time it's revisited time and time again. ( "over 13 years"). Always (to
some degree at least) where's there is smoke you will find fire. Why is
therefore this "smoke" ?
Two of the lessons from nursing I learn that a
nurse is a Patient advocate and a nurse is a change agent. I intend to try to
help this change. I thought the correct path was to learn on what basis the
other party's argument was. With academic completion of my ASN very shortly I
haven't found any real merits for it. Maybe I just was educated at a substandard
level. Independent of nursing, I have 20 months experience in a trauma center
with all the job duties of a new RN but not the respect because I was only a
"Paramedic" - Earn the respect of my fellow nurses too - even a few are
references. The point of this hasn't anything to do with me but it does have to
do with my profession and the general attitude that some have.
If any reader would like to write me off-list
please feel free.
