My wife is a nurse, a great one but nurses outside of Nurse Practioners aren't in a position to make informed decisions on medical treatment & prognosis. But congrats, nursing a tough field - a lot of respect for them

I'm sure you didn't mean it that way, but that read as incredibly patronising.

My wife is a nurse, I have worked around nurses most of my working life and I know the psychology of nurses - so trust me when I say that no way I could've put it where it would not sound patronising to a nurse. They have a chip on their shoulder psychologically, it makes them either great nurses or nutty as hell.

But nurses, even the most elite ones, lack the education in medicine to weigh in on surgical prognosis - if she's indeed a trauma, step down surgical unit or ortho nurse then she will have undoubtedly gained a great deal of experience but only the proactive nurses get educated through those years. Some nurses would've made great physicians, but then again great nurses are vital - I'm encouraging my wife to become a Nurse practioner, it's is a great profession & meld of the two

Wow. Thats a sweeping generalisation to put it mildly.
I am a Specialist Macmillan Nurse and i have not got a psychological chip on my shoulder, however everyone is out to get me and its always the nurses fault.
 
We'e had some incredibly dumb arguments on the Transfer forum but this one really stands out. Maybe time to talk about where the hell Bravo is?
