Undoubtedly the patient would have appreciated you staying behind to help - it sounds like you have built up some form of rapport with him.<BR/><BR/>Unfortunately the practice of medicine conflicts entirely with 'the bottom line' that is the ultimate arbiter of a good health system for administrators and the government. Pick the battles and try to see the good in patients...better yet, move to Australia - the problems afflicting the NHS are a good 10 years away yet!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17612141.post-1164749977046779892006-11-28T21:39:00.000+00:002006-11-28T21:39:00.000+00:00I get 'student nurse gets naked', no idea why as I...I get 'student nurse gets naked', no idea why as I am not actually naked anywhere on the site.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17612141.post-1164641016620670212006-11-27T15:23:00.000+00:002006-11-27T15:23:00.000+00:00I put in "I hate medicine" and found you too.

I just started a blog,<BR/><BR/> http://travelingmedicineshow.wordpress.com/<BR/><BR/>and my very first posts are about the saga of actually leaving medicine (the first time). It is quite a difficult thing to do, but if you're like me, there is no other choice. I'm interested to hear where you stand now. Either way, hang in there and keep blogging.
