I would like to think these are just rare loudmouths.
if they’re making videos they should be easy to track down...
TDS is a cult
I’d like to think that my politics wouldn’t play a role in my health care, but at the same time, I wouldn’t feel the need to discuss my politics. Are people going in wearing MAGA hats? Do the questions they ask include “what is your political affiliation”? “Do you support ICE?” “DID you vote for Trump?”
Keep in mind, folks, political contributions are public record.
You don’t need to wear your MAGA hat or tee to the doc for a provider to know.
My lovely wife the RN/NP tells stories of the ‘young’ nurses that will curl your hair. Does this stuff actually happen? Hell yes! NEVER go to a hospital without a relative/friend with you to ask questions.
Wait till they decide that the morphine is too expensive.
I spent ten days in the hospital last week.
After reading all of these stories i made it a point to turn off fox news whenever a nurse walked into my room.
have stated that they’d refuse care to MAGA supporters? I hope they do that because then we can have them fired for cause and eliminate all of them. Make them pay a price for their Political “hobby”.
The ugly secret is that’s been bed-clearing protocol at hospitals for a few decades now. No political bias required.
I have been in the hospital a few times. There is no way I ever discuss or show what my political leanings may be. NO nurse has ever asked, and I never watched news there either.
So how do these harpies know who is supposedly MAGA?
Soon on an episode of The Pitt..
A boorish, injured patient wearing a MAGA hat is wheeled into the trauma center, dies, and the subtext is that he no doubt deserved it.
A nurse Ratched is considered evil because she is a sadistic, power-hungry figure who uses psychological manipulation, coercion, and strict routine to dehumanize patients and maintain absolute control over the ward.
aka democrat
In the US, it's called "Comfort Care".
Back in 1990 I had open heart surgery and an artificial valve implanted. I remember the doctor real well.
Saw him again in 2016 and he was talking to a nurse about how great it would be if Hillary would be elected.
I NEVER mention politics when in a doctor’s office since.
Unfortunately everyone is entitled to put voice to their opinion - that is a constitutional right. Putting that opinion in writing and/or social media should put the writer in conflict with their employer’s behavior clauses in the employment contract as grounds for termination.
Medical licensing boards need to get really serious about investigating these claims and making examples out of nurses who make care decisions based on politics. No joke. Even if a nurse just goes on line and shoots of her (or his) mouth without acting, they should face some discipline. A nurse is a licensed professional, not a clown. They give care to vulnerable people which may involve life or death situations. Red State governors and legislatures need to make this a priority. I would hope that Blue States would have the maturity and professionalism to stop this BS too.
many years ago....my neighbors kid was a nurse, and she told us that when whiny loud people were the patients, the nurses made sure to make the shot hurt.
this was in the 90’s.
This is what happens when you educate nurses in our pathetic colleges and universities today. They are listening to the same communist leaning professors other kids are.
How much better were the hospital trained nurses. Today anyone can sign up to be a nurse. In the previous years IQ testing, interviews, and aptitude sifting to attempt to choose those actually suited for caring for the public. In addition the schools were located adjacent to hospitals; learning there daily resulted in plenty of hospital nurses.
This big “shortage” of nurses is actually hospital shortages when the students figure out they are not really cut out to care for sick people. And so it is no surprise to me when they join the political game of the day and are able to neglect their supposed purpose in life.
How do they know? They look at your shot record.
