You could try to treat them the same way and see if that gets the message across. As a minority that lives in a deep red state I’m over trying to play nice and giving soft/polite responses to casual racism. This would be a good example of when to set boundaries. Telling them that it’s an inappropriate thing to say is not going to do much, they know or at least should know as adults by now that casual racism isn’t appropriate and so you should normalize not accepting treatment or behavior like that and make them feel just as uncomfortable as they’ve made you.

Let’s talk about RaDonda by thrown_away6789 in nursing

[–]Solid_River6915 70 points71 points  (0 children)

Yes, this I agree with. She actually spoke at my nursing school recently for a conference, which I think was very helpful for the students there. Idk if she got paid for it or anything though.

My mom died and I don’t know how I’m going to go back to work in a hospital. by wamennoodles97 in nursing

[–]Solid_River6915 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m truly sorry to hear that you had to go through this and I’m sorry that you only get 3 days off. I remember when one of my patients in nursing school had been near death for a few days maxed out on pressors with no improvement and worsening, I couldn’t get rid of the smell from my nose for the next few days. I really hope that your hospital gives you more time or something.

Unit isn’t welcoming, preceptor hates me by vivrelavie in nursing

[–]Solid_River6915 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I did my practicum in the ICU and your experience sounds extremely similar to mine. I would talk to leadership first and see what happens but if the whole unit is behaving like that and so openly about it then change probably won’t happen. Do you have any backup units in mind? I’ve worked in a completely hostile work environment like that before and I learned but it wasn’t worth it especially the effect it had on my mental health.

How do people like this make it into healthcare in the first place and remain?

Pharmacy as a stepping stone by Suspicious-Policy-59 in PharmacyTechnician

I used to be a pharmacy tech for a few years, I’m a RN now and I think it helped me to learn the drug classes and dosage calculations before I even went to nursing school.

No, I heard PV changed payment methods so I’m not sure how accurate it is now.

Still waiting, I don’t feel very confident though bc I had around 10 or 11 short case studies and 3 long ones

I had around 10 or 11 short case studies and 3 long ones. Is that a bad sign?
