You see the problem is that many of these doctors have nothing upstairs and bring pride to the work place, they don’t know the ethics that govern their profession and are just lazy, they don’t want to do their job and are looking for who to slave off too, I don’t blame them fully, it’s a fault of the country as well, where we are uncivilized and uneducated or not fully educated on our roles and who we are. A lot of these docs are a bunch of hooligans and quacks, taught by quacks so u still can’t completely fault them. They are not taught that even discarding their waste could be the most important part of the procedure, save a life and endanger hundreds. They one way thinkers and do not have the capacity to think beyond what has been handed to over. A typical Nigerian is always looking for someone to enslave and the Bulk of nurses are women so ofcourse they want to take advantage of that. You don’t see them try this nonsense with other medical professionals that the bulk of them are males, so it comes down to what? *a mens world* of which a lot of them are scum and bless those that are civilized.

You think it’s easy to be a black man? What do black women face? Home and abroad. At least black men can behave however they like in their homes but u see women?

So most of these things boils down to poor upbringing too that feeds into the professional world too.

If u docs are tired go abroad first let me check something lol

my dear, at this point you are talking like someone bitten by a mad dog. Drop your phone and cool off a little.

What the nurse did was totally wrong and should be punished. It was not her role to enforce clean up.

Hope you are not the nurse sha

aribisala0:
Doctors have some responsibility in disposing biohazardous material
Why should someone be employed to "clean up after doctors"
Is anyone employed to wipe people's asses when they use toilets?
If you use a face mask you should dispose it yourself. If you use sharps you should discard appropriately.
I am not commenting on the incident above because I do not think we have all the facts but employing cleaner to clean up after doctors is a bizarre suggestion
Disposal of biohazardous material is a serious matter with all round responsibility and doctors have a key role in this effort; not leaving biological/hazardous material about creating risks to other staff and patients

Pls get sence... every job has it specifications. Its not a doctors job to clean after any procedure. There are cleaners in every cooperate organization . Schools, banks, hospitals ...... name it.
So stop typing without your head.

blowjohn:


Sharap there!
If u know how nurses always do all they can to frustrate doctors u will not be yarning dust.
Every single day as if they knew doctors frm birth.
Of a nurse ever locks me up for this kind of excuse baba I go show her pepper

Immediately the junior nurses come out of nursing school, d stupid,obese older ones will start indoctrinating them on how to be frustrate and be rude to doctors.
"You are a professional, don't allow any doctor to intimidate you;doctors are wicked; all men are wicked" bla bla bla

Shaev7:
That Dr dy speak English. Make him go write IELTS exam and japa. Naija no get time. That English him dy speak the Matron dy dominate her the more.hahahaha funny

Dr : This is harassment

Crazy Nurse: I did not embarrassed her!

Fear Nigerian nurses oh. Most went to school, but school did not pass through them. They took the learning and not the character. Them don shout for me shege, I fear them pass police. One just dey shout on my pregnant sister. "If you don't push, I will push you!". One sent me out of GOPD, for not bringing my reg card out swiftly. "Oga if you cannot provide your card move out!" At least she added oga to it.

Doctors on the other hand can form too. You can't be a boss to another professional, it not done. Do your job and let others do their job. You can't be raising shoulder to patients, who should ideally be the boss. Even house officer, that does not know the full treatment of conditions self or how to take blood sample yet, go still dey worry.

Dentists are the worst, they never support Medical doctors until it's time to contest for CMD, NMA chairman or wage increase.

Make most of Una, except the good ones, getat!

AdemolaA2:


So in other words , doctors are meant to clear clinical instruments used after surgery and then the cleaners come in afterwards to clean other regular dirts right ?

When doctors clear the instruments used, the nurses washes them then sends them to a place for sterilisation. The nurses makes sure the surface of any equipment is cleaned thoroughly

The duty of the cleaners is to clean the floor, they have nothing to do with the instruments or blood stains on any surface in the theatre
Then they also carry the contents of the bin to where it should be

Nurse locks doctor up at Obafemi Awolowo University teaching hospital (oauth) over a claim that the doctor did not clean up after performing a surgery procedure on a patient.




https://tribuneonlineng.com/nurse-holds-doctor-hostage-in-oau-teaching-hospital-resident-doctors-plan-strike/

Not surprised. There is an age long battle of supremacy between senior nurses(Matrons) and doctors, especially young doctors. I have witnessed it before. The nurse was so insecure ( all of them are when they see young doctors) and was raining insults at the young dude and telling him of how many years she has spent on the job. The doctor was just quiet and continued with his job. They are also always contending with doctors when it comes to pay grades.

Hahahah naso na
The guy think say the crazy nurse dy play

Will you keep quiet, you uncouth individual.

Go and study international standard practice in nursing and medical practitioner, then you can come back and talk to me.

That d doctors are helping out, which is okay, doesn't make it standard.

And where did I tell you I was a doctor? I am very convinced you need that education more than anyone. Vote Obi, he'll take care of that for you .

your type are d ones disgracing humanity and do not just know how to respect profession superior than theirs. no wait make doctors dey pack shit while you d nurse is there watching him.

before you open that your unruly mouth, always think

fakooblak:
You spent 8-12years in school, yet you talk like an illiterate....
No be only you dey work outside Nigeria. Where I work, Doctors dispose the clinical waste they generate properly. Even consultants.

HilcomTech:


This a criminal case of kidnapping is what you are calling a mere case.

the head nurse asked the doctor to dispose the waste of wch she refused/ignored,making the nurse to angrily lock the door,after several plea by various pple present there bfr the nurse finally opened the door.
how is that kidnapping??

Oh I see .. but I feel auxiliary nurses should rather be the ones doing the cleaning and not the doctors who would have been exhausted after performing tasking surgeries .

We all know it's Naija where anything goes.
Firstly, the doctor has a duty to check that all medical and support staff are in place before commencement of surgery, but those wings might probably be on strike.
And there is an unending battle between resident doctors/consultants and matrons.
Even at that, there are channels of seeking redress

zedegit:


Which memo? Is it Doctor that clean the ward?

You are very correct �. It's one of the two postulations

dora7891:


You must be living abroad or at the back of Nigeria

debola27:

Some of us chose Nursing because we wanted it. Do you think some people can survive Nursing school heat. If you're a nursing student in the university, you dare not score less than C in any course. Any score less than C(50%) is failure. That is also the standard in medical school. So what are you saying?

Dear, I didn't say the nursing program is not tedious enough to go through. Don't get me wrong please.

This is not good at all

phemmyfour:
How dare you refer to a Nurse as "mere".... educated illiterate

Seriously..I was taken aback,mere what!?

Honestly,tired of hearing that line, assistant..

dora7891:


That’s not team work, team work is in relation to the care of the patient and not making excuse for a medical negligence. A nurse is not a doctors assistant, is a pharmacist a doctors assistant? Because they work in closest contact than other healthcare professionals doesn’t mean u and anyone else should blur the job description of a nurse. The only nurse u will say doing such are those in private hospitals employed by doctors and quacks, trained by doctors

You don’t see a doctor coming to help a nurse to clean up after she has doing a procedure such as wound dressing do u? Do u see a physiotherapist help a doc to clean up his mess?

Or should nurses also help the doc to clean his ass after he has use the toilet.

Otunbakayce:
She will never try this nonsense in the UK. She would be suspended within one week. They get humbled the moment to go abroad.

You are a liar
Doctors and Nurses are professionals here in UK.
Everyone will do his/her duty diligently not like naija where Doctors always believe they are ahead of nurses.

Let that NURSE keep running her mouth...
She will be surprised when she will be charged for KIDNAPPING......
She should write NCLEX, relocate to the US and do such. That will be the end of her life & not just her career!
NIGERIANS always allow their church mind to take precedence over many things, else this is a GOOD CASE for the Court.
A Fantastic case for that matter.
Wish I can speak with the DOC.

Before you judge......You have your phone.......just Google who is to dispose waste/sharps after use . The international best practices was put in place so that used sharps do not mistakenly puncture another person.

fakooblak:

No be only you dey work outside Nigeria. Where I work, Doctors dispose the clinical waste they generate properly. Even consultants.

Their is a WHO policy on waste disposal which must be followed by all health care professionals.. This is often ignored by most Doctors because of their so called Ego.

Ollygold:

You can shit on your pant all you want, a nurse in the UK will never practice again for a very long time if she tries that in the UK.
You work under the instructions and supervision of a Doctor.
No be the same UK we dey again.

Ollygold:

So says an auxillary nurse who doesn't know the difference between "There and Their".

bizzibodi:
How can a mere nurse do that to a doctor their is no hospital or patients if not doctors.after God na doctors,she should be discipline.it not everything strike.

Don't say that again what is mere nurse.
For your information both doctors and nurses are professionals in their careers. Meanwhile their is a WHO policy on waste disposal which must be followed by all health care professionals.. This is often ignored by most Doctors because of their so called Ego.

bastardmod:
Inferior human things called nurses. Cursed beings. I'm a doctor, I employ the bastards, and I can tell you they are useless pieces ofnshit

I guess it's the quacks you employ,and your choice of words are really unrefined Mr Doc.

Ollygold:

They are ahead of the nurses and will forever be. A nurse is supposed to work under the supervision of a Doctor. A Nurse is not an independent practitioner. A Doctor is your indirect boss whether you like it or not. Even in cadre level a freshly licensed Doctor starts from grade level 10, while a fresh graduate nurse starts from grade level 6 or 7.

Funny........you are just displaying your ignorance. Why not show/refer us international standard of practice that you quoting. When you use a sharp, or make a waste, you discard them yourselves.You don't even call the health assistant for that, there job is to dispose of the waste in the trash can and tidy up the place after you might have discard the waste you generated.If you shit for your house na your maid you dey call to flush for you. Her work is to clean your toilet after you have flush. It's as simple as that

After 5 years in the university, internship and all,Helper?? you must be very ignorant,what do you know about the medical field anyway....imagine the comparison at bolded?? Are you saying Nurses don't go to university?? How knowledgeable of you!

Microwhy:

They're "mere" no matter how you guys fight it, Doctors are still far above you and we in the society respect doctors more, we see them as nurses oga. Stop trying to change what you cant. Nurses are helpers to doctors.
University graduate is not same with polytechnic graduates,
Engineers not same with technicians.
No matter how bitter you're about it, the fact remain.
Accept the fact and know peace.

Dichotomy!!!

Google is your friend, just type independent nurse practitioner. Let us see want you get.
Moreover this is not even about who senior who but doing the right thing: your job, in health, we work as a team. Whether you are a pharm. Lab scientist.........no one is superior. The patient/client is the most important person in the hospital.

Are you even sure he's a doctor..

dora7891:


Wow I haven’t seen such level of inferiority complex of a doctor towards nurses lol what exactly are you scared of. A real nurse must have dealt with the quack in you

I don't get this. Is the surgeon not supposed to be above the nurse by rank and status? Is a surgeon even supposed to clean up after an operation, no cleaning staffs in the hospital? And even if there no cleaning staffs what about the surgeon assistants and the other nurses? Then lastly does that nurse realized that holding someone against their will is a crime?
I've so many questions but the simple answer to all of this is- Nigeria mentality.
