It has gotten to the point of just ridiculous. I had to finally get away from hospital nursing after over 20 years for just this(and some other) reasons. it’s a shame what is going on and nobody really seems to care, certainly not nurse managers and higher ups who blindly just do what they are told. Long gone are the days of the nurse being ‘in charge’ of the patient. Long gone are the days of the nurse being able to ‘read the riot act’ to a patient in order for them to see what is actually best for them. Years ago nurses had the reputations as being drill sergeants and for good reason- they were doing what was best for the patient. Now if you don’t treat them like ‘guests in a 4 star hotel’ you’re likely to be fired. it’s sad.

Because diaudid + unnecessary admission always = a good evaluation! We aim to please; after all.
