So retarded!



Nothing make me more mad then when nurses are portrayed like this. It is so unrealistic and I just want to take these people on a 12 hour shift and see how they look after that. Nurses are one of the hardest working group of people on the planet. If you disagree with that, then go see for yourself. They hardly ever sit down, are constantly thinking all the time, and are lifting, changing, and controlling very stressful situations. It is definitely harder than I once thought.

Today I have to go to a METI simulation. METI man is a dummy that breathes, blinks, pees, has pulses, veins, etc... He allows us to practice on him and sometimes he lives, sometimes he dies. Today we have an extra stressor placed on us...an irate family member (played by an instructor)...We have to save METI and control the family member at the same time. It should be interesting. Hopefully he'll live.
I really do not want to have to go. It's all the way in Fairhope! Oh well, hope everyone is having a good day!
