Yeah well it's kind of hard to not be irritated by that post, because you know nothing of what it takes to be a nurse. Why make a provocative comment on a subject you don't know about?
Anyway, that's the whole point of learning the art of nursing. Understanding people's needs on a wholistic level, etc. What do you think they teach us in school? It's not the same kind of "empathy" calculated in this test at all, as someone already pointed out.
The "art" of nursing that I speak of is learning to find the balance between empathizing with patients and providing them CARE, while maintaining a professional, knowledgeable role. It requires strength as much as it does empathy, if not more.
At the end of the day, our job is to advocate for the needs of the sick/aged/dying...and getting too personally/emotionally involved hinders that ability.
I think you need to expand your notions of what it means to be empathetic. ;) |
Well, like I said, I don't know what it is like to be a nurse, or be in the shoes of someone who has to deal with the kind of crap I am sure a nurse has to handle. I didn't realize that the kind of empathy the test was gaging wasn't similar to the kind of empathy I thought a nurse would need.
Yeesh. Jenny you need to smoke a dube.
Don't worry, I am empathetic to your snappiness... :p

Well when I attack (albeit passively) your ability to do YOUR job, we'll see how you react. ;)
I still love you though T.  |

Nah, it wasn't attacking at all. Seriously, it was an innocent curiousity, and was only hoping you would be able to clarify the difference of something I obviously didn't know. |
