Can you be a good nurse if you hate conflict? I’ve been at the bedside for a year and a half, and I’m realizing I might be too soft. I look at the veteran nurses who are no-nonsense and totally unfazed by difficult doctors or family members. I still get anxious, apologize for bugging MDs, and bend over backwards to keep the peace. Is there a place for gentle personalities here, or do I need to toughen up?

I think as you gain experience, you’ll build that same kind of unbothered demeanor that veteran nurses carry!

Yes you learn when to speak up as time goes on with patients and MDs especially if they have a habit of being disrespectful to you and other staffs. Nurses are advocates for others. Veteran nurses have trained responses for those encounters and knows which responses are the most effective. Keep at your job you’re probably doing great if you’re still sensitive but you’ll learn to when to respond to conflicts that benefits you too.

Outside of work, one of the qualities i take the most pride in is being 'nice' but not 'soft'. My pride in it stems from seeing political weakness and seeing the harm of softness misrepresented as decency. When people think soft is nice, people get hurt.
You arent what matters, youre just a dude or a lady... a human. Dont allow systems to be corrupted and understand that the best you can do is cooperate with uncorrupted systems the right way, not just following emotion.

Started talking to this guy through group a group telegram and one day he offered to pay for my lunch as I had helped him out with something. Since then he has been offering to pay for my dinners, salon visits, shopping etc and I have accepted 3-4 times. I am in a steady relationship and my boyfriend doesn’t know about this. The other guy just says he likes paying for my stuff and there’s no agenda. Is this a little weird?

So I say this with complete humility and an understanding that this is a fortunate-ish situation to be in. I’m in a position where I am tied to nothing, I have no children, spouse, or house. My job, which I’ve loved until some recent significant leadership changes, is sucking the life out of me and I think it may be time for a change. Because I am able to “pick up and go” I’m open to opportunities and locations. I’ve never worked with a recruiter but was hoping I could get some recommendations!

Good morning!

Still trying to figure out this whole Fishbowl thing, so here goes my first post.

I would love to get into provider credentialing, but all employers I've looked at want at least 3 years of experience. So, I'm looking at Provider Network Coordinator roles, because I'm finding some of those roles don't need AS MUCH experience. I'm a RHIT, and have been working in healthcare for nearly 10 years.

Any input on employers is appreciated!
