rofl.....I'm curious to hear more about that jimi
He slid into primary medical tent and seated himself at the table. Rather than assisting with incoming patients as all others did, he just sat there.
I went over and assisted AirEvac with an intubation, while he sat there looking sheepish.
I finally went over and shook his hand, he mumbled something in his lazy drawl and i really didn't listen. I was busy. Primary medical was slammed with EMTs bringing in more dehydrated partiers by the minute. Eventually he slunk away to be golf carted out to his station. He acted like he was able to choose where he worked, but I must say he stayed far away from primary medical the entire time I was there.
He told his basic instructor, that he was finished with nursing school, but has yet to take his boards. I wonder what the TN board of nursing would have to say about a graduate nurse impersonating an EMT-P/ACNP. I wonder if that might get a stipulation put on his license (if he really did finish nursing school.)
My follow up question would why didn't he take his nursing boards? My answer to this question is, he didn't take nursing school and that is his way of answering his teacher about his current status as an "RN candidate."
You see, there was no way for him to lie to her about being a paramedic, for obvious reasons. And there is no way to verify that he is a graduate nurse, so as long as he hasn't taken boards yet, there is no way to prove that he isn't. Other than to find out which nursing school he "finished."
I should have asked her to ask him what nursing school he went to, then we could call the school and find out if he ever attended.
I wonder if his lies would affect his status with the board or nursing, since impersonation of a registered nurse is a crime.
the only catch is that... he did it online. No one can prove he ever did it IRL.
