@Steven25364370 What will you be doing if not nursing?

[John @jopod92]

@DrEilidhMaria Can I just say that we aren’t all like that and I’m ashamed to be affiliated with a Nurse like that. I always make Drs feel welcome and often teach being a MH nurse the F1s etc don’t have a lot of experience of the MHA and we then go onto discuss research etc.

@TheHairyBeef It’s why I walk mine at stupid hours of the morning or just hire a field to let my girls run

@mamasathome_ My landlord has kept my rent at £550 for a two bedded terraced for 3 years 🤷🏼‍♂️ it can be done and I am sure there still making a profit

@KDavies30 @NurseStandard We need to come away from Nursing family, it should be RNs either branch, Nursing associates or HCSWs . Stop confusing it with nursing, we are all distinct

[John @jopod92]

@KDavies30 @NurseStandard This, just this. I constantly tell staff not to call themselves a band 2.,3,4,5,6,7 we are either HCSWS, RNs or either branch or senior nurses of either branch etc. Every other profession calls themselves paramedics, physios, seems to be the “nursing” that doesn’t.

@nohandsup @JoeHunter1991 I suppose but then we could look at university education, I know for my uni we had far more diverse placements than other unis gave their students around me. Allowing me and my cohort to become proficient not competent.
But then there should be core skills for all 4 branches

[John @jopod92]

@nohandsup @JoeHunter1991 What trusts want doesn’t align with the NMC standards, RNs do qualify with the skills and should be competent, the nhs just likes remain in the past 🤷🏼‍♂️

[John @jopod92]

@JoeHunter1991 @nohandsup All nurses do qualify with core nursing clinical skills now

@Charlie_A_A @simontutt88 @NurseStandard Or Registered Nurrses - Mental health leading a ward, making complex decisions, or in the community assessing if it’s safe to be in the community. The list goes on with nursing responsibilities!

[John @jopod92]

@manager_newbie @Dr_BellaR Of course it is, I hate being mistaken for a Dr, no I am a Nurse. And I especially hate it when i am with a female Dr and they automatically think I am the Dr. No miss/mr I am the nurse, this lovely person is the Doc!

Misleading job titles: why are non-nurses being called nurses?

[John @jopod92]

From HCSW to TnA to NAR, to RNMH and my first staff nurse job in A&E then acute Nursing. To now receiving a band 5 staff Nurse progression post to Band 6 Senior Nurse post. Although I’d prefer to be called Brother Podmore if female nurses can be sisters 😂😂

This is ATRIAL FIBRILLATION. Fibrillating right atria and rapid ventricular response

@221Beth_TiggZ @NurseStandard You wouldn’t be a Senior Nurse, you would still be a NQN but with a higher pay. The current senior nurses would have their pay uplifted also. Bands are pay, not a job role.
