I'm a nurse, ask me anything!

[Lily2811]

Bored and a little lonely these evening. Keep me company! AMA

What sort of nursing do you do? Do you enjoy it?

Have you seen it ALLLLLLL before?

Hello people!

@Wildboar I work in A&E. I enjoy it about 65% of the time but the pressures and stress is very hard. At work I feel stressed most of the time and a lot of the time when I'm at home thinking about work.

@MsMightyTitanAndHerTroubadours- seen AND heard it all before!!!

Do you think nurses should be able to prescribe at least some medicines?

Do you get fed up with people asking for medical advice?

Come on then... what’s the grossest, strangest and shocking thing you have seen! 😀

Would you choose this career again knowing what you now know?

Also, yes what’s the grossest/weirdest thing you’ve seen?

@jewel1968 some
Nurses do prescribe. They have to do additional study

@jewel1968 as @itbemay1 said, nurses can prescribe once they've done an additional course. We can also give certain medications under a patient group directive.

Do you enjoy or dislike working with students?
