One of my coworkers recently confronted an ER nurse after he saw here commit a major regional policy violation. What she did was unprofessional and unsafe. All of the other nurses on duty in the ER agreed with what he had to say. He was polite and not aggressive. In the city where I work, ER nurses have earned themselves a reputation for being very nasty to EMS. I understand they are overworked, stressed, tired, have a high number of patients, etc. I am a very patient person, I like to give people the benefit of the doubt, and I respect what ER nurses do.
What I would like is a little advice on how to deal with it when you encounter an ER nurse that is really unprofessional or does something that is unsafe. Thanks in advance for anything you can think of. I would really love to know if anyone else has been in a similar situation and what they did about it, what they said, etc.
