its not about how you present yourself, narcism's talking about how you feel.
if you've never had a patient whose pissed you off you most likely havn't had much, or any experience in nursing. Its not about being a good nurse, its about having emotions.
if you're incapable, or beyond feeling shit, i would suggest YOU are a bad nurse. Nurses generally have high levels of emotional intelligence and empathy, which is what makes them want to go into nursing. this is a double edged sword though of course since it means you're more likely to get upset.
If you've never had a shit patient, or been upset, or annoyed at a patient, you've not had much experience.
its not about burnout, or being jaded, its about being a human being and handling, instead of repressing your emotions. |
There's a time and a place for dealing with one's emotions, and it isn't at the bedside.

No, actually, she asked if I'd ever been cranky with any of my patients. And Lilith specifically said she was referring to attitudes towards coworkers. I appreciate your attempt at butting in though. |
upset with patients doesn't automatically mean how she actually treated them, although it is possible: And yes, lilith was talking about attitudes towards coworkers, NOT patients..
anytime!
my mum's been a nurse for almost 30 years, a lot of those in emergency, including running the division, in one of the busiest hospitals in melbourne-- I can't imagine any nurse being able to walk away all smiles and giggles, unaffected by that shit, unless you're new to it, or in a chilled out ward, and i think its extremely unfair of you to question people's work ethic based on your mostly-scholasttic experience.
