That's part of nursing school.<BR/><BR/>I've been in the medical field on and off for about the past five years and my family has a strong medical background, so I know that a nurse is supposed to be able to assume primary care of the ENTIRE PATIENT and <B>all</B> of their body systems.<BR/><BR/>That's crazy, although I have heard of this same thing happening from time to time. The RN vs RT conflict is silly. You're right...if we can't work well as a team, RT's will end up running the hospital. lol<BR/><BR/>I'm so glad I switched from nursing to respiratory.Jaredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02971521259527034303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1718168170536921414.post-71932724211434808662008-06-17T02:27:00.000-05:002008-06-17T02:27:00.000-05:00GTS:Wish I knew what school she was from, I would ...GTS:<BR/><BR/>Wish I knew what school she was from, I would totally flame it.<BR/><BR/>J/KAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01763856556153355491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1718168170536921414.post-80395741503470966742008-06-17T01:26:00.000-05:002008-06-17T01:26:00.000-05:00I knew I made the right decision to switch to resp...I knew I made the right decision to switch to respiratory from nursing.
