Read your post. "It's not that hard to be an RN". Not get a degree. The actual present tense of functioning as an RN. And your comment that it is easy to get a degree ignores the reality of what some people have to deal with to get one.
Reading comprehension?? Really?
I did not say it was not that difficult an exam. Stop making shit up. I did not think it was as hard as the RRT. Reading comprehension. Do you want to contradict yourself?
Yes, one can report bad care to management and be considered a whistle blower. One can not go to the family. HIPAA. Read it!
The only lies here are yours. The undeniable truth is that very little of a mass of incompetent care gets reported. The news is full of it. And management is more interested in covering their asses than protecting patients. And thats why people who complain get shut out.
I'm done with you. You misrepresent and try to twist what people write. And you have little reading comprehension. And I think you lie.
