I don't "shop" for nurses. The ones I encounter at my doctor's officesare
college grads who have passed exams and are licensed. That's who the
doctors at our PPO hire.


Harry, we can only take you for your word, but your experience is very much
in the minority.
Almost elitist in a way.

In this dismal economy and rising unemployment, some of the few bright spots
for careers are in the fields of medical technicians, EMT's, nurses and
aids that do not require a college education. They require training and
certification of course, but they are fully qualified to perform many basic
procedures, leaving the RNs and Doctors free to deal with more important
activities.

With the shortage of RN's, we should be encouraging it.

It's elitist to "accept" the health care providers my doctor's office
provides to its patients. I'll have to tell my doctor that the next time
I see him...I'm sure he'll have a good laugh over it.

I don't select the staff there...the doctors who own the practice do.

When you were a kid did you also pedal your bicycle backwards?

Only when I shifted gears.

I'm sure my doc will get a kick out it when I tell him he has to hire
less qualified staff so the jackoffs on rec.boats will be happier with
the way he and his partners run their business.

He can hire whoever he wants and you can brag about who you go to all you
want. Point is, it doesn't require a college education to walk to the
waiting room carrying a clipboard, call out "Harry Krause", lead you to a
scale, weigh you, take you to an examination room, take and record your
blood pressure, then say, "the doctor will be with you shortly".

I'm not bragging. It's just the way it is. I don't make the rules at my
doctor's office. I agree that it does not take a degree to greet
patients, weigh them, or take their temp or blood pressure. Even *I* can
do that. If you teamed up with Tom, you two could handle it, too.
