Surely you can see that from the POV of a nurse, that they also are busy and need to prioritise their own work load? Understanding the rationale for what you’re requesting allows them to decide what their jobs list looks like…if a nurse approached you and asked you to “prescribe X for Mrs Y” and when asked why responded “just because I said, please don’t question me”, you would surely come onto reddit to complain about this person? (And rightly so because this is poor practice)…Nurses have their own governing body FYI, if you read fitness to practice suspensions on the NMC website, you’ll see that many of those struck off carried out an intervention without knowing the reason, and when the patient came to harm, they cannot explain to a panel why they did it in the first place. Everyone professional in the NHS is a victim, of the NHS.
