drnoel:Med schools in Nigeria should inculcate that in the trainings. I had learnt to set IV lines and to give IM/Iv injections plus to take vitals since my first yr of medical school. Doctors shouldnt be left at d mercy of nurses after med school. That wouldn't aid d boss status they should naturally take when they start to work. During my encounter wv d nija doctors I met, I was surprised that they dont have models for learning even at UI which is d premier and supposed to be d best. A lot of other things like communication skills and how to deal with difficult co workers and patients should be taught. I have enough swags and confidence(not arrogance) and I am not even a graduate yet, thanks to quality education. I have always wondered what practicing in Nigeria would be like. Scopes on dealing wv em rude nurses? |

Prettychyna: @ Nuoriah, So you still believe in this your know it all philosophy? SMH4U!talking about incompetence,what do you have to say about a doctor that prescribed IV chloroquine for a patient?or one that prescribed ampiclox 4g qds for a minor infection? Or a HO that said you use izal to treat diabetic foot?what do you have to say about the bunch of incompetent doctors killing patients because they don't want to believe that they don't know it all or don't wanna listen? ,if not for the protocol and law guiding the health care,you will bear with me that most of the nurses and doctors work will overlap.As if we didn't enter the same class with med students for anat,physio,biochem,pharmac. ,we monitor the patient and that is what we write in our nursing process and you work based on the information we give you,well unless you also don't listen to the nurses which is quite unfortunate. My dear,we are also there to catch your mistakes which a good doctor always appreciates The nurse also prevents the incompetent doctors from accidentally killing patients that is why we spend 5years in the university to learn all we know unlike you that spend just 6years learning the work of a doctor,nurse,lab scientist,pharmacist,radiographer,physiotherapist,nutritionist and recently I heard you will start learning traditional medicine(you mentioned earlier you know all that)! So hilarious!!real jack of all trade master of none . If you are a doctor my dear ,stick to that and stop trying to outdo others in their field. As for passing the MBBS, I have seen what they do in school in the name of writing professional exam! Its so painful when our so called medical students sort their way through, this is an exam where the brilliant ones fail while the dunces with little cash cross over. Its only in 9ja that this argument happens The relationship is symbiotic, fine. But someone gets to take d lead. Stop being ridiculous with that bs about doctors paying their way out. How come you are d one aware of that? Is ur bf one of them? |

StateOfMind: Very long though,I get your point. While not trying to defend those med students,I see myself acting the same way if I have the assumption that I can get respected only by that means. I said earlier that I was once at UCH. I hadnt even graduated med school and I ddnt study in Nigeria. The matron in d ward my family member was was very rude. The first time she saw me she claimed I ddnt greet her when I cldnt even differentiate her from others. They all have all kinds of uniforms. I was there caring for a family member and she was demanding e kaaro from me? What part of her job entails that? To avoid trouble,I wld look for her and greet her whenevr I arrived(and that I wasnt in a good mood) things Changed d day my aunts came into d ward and she insulted one of them. they shouted at her and made her realise I was a med student and that I was soon to be a doctor. She changed towards me henceforth and I had a good interaction with d doctors and some other (few) nurses. So if it is d disreapect some people need to act right,you might just dish it to them. |

ngozievergreen:Yh she spoilt it by including doctors. Many nurses have bad attitudes. What we should have worked on is how to tackle that rather than trying to bring others into it |

In a hospital setting, while the others are dispensable, doctors are not. Doctors take all d shifts in med school including phamarcology, radiology and pathology. A lab result,a doctor is expected to be able to interprete and d mechanism of each drug known and all of these people still want to claim boss. Until the other professionals understand their positions and just take it,we will continue to have these problems. A doctor knows the basics of what they all know whereas they can not claim the same. The problem isnt with the doctors but d low self esteemed 'others' |

fellis: At Fellis, I really don't know how a doctor wouldn't feel like a super human. It takes a super to have graduated medical school. Jokes apart, doctors are very much more courteous than the Nigerian nurses we are talking about. I had a very bad experience with them when a relative of mine was on admission at the UCH. It was bad enough that the incoming nursing students are already learning their ways and acting the same way. If nurses want to be respected,they need to earn it. And about nurses trying to compare themselves with doctors,don't even start abi where were u when others were heading to med school. The code of ethics is clear and you all should already know your place and simply stay there. We can decide not to say it as it is but the fact remains that the doctor gives d orders while the nurses take them. If you wouldn't take the orders, don't go to nursing school.simple! 3 Likes |
