      Every time I have a conversation with my best friend or her family about any nursing aspect or my job as a nursing assistant in med-surg (we obviously all know what my job duties are) all she ever has to say is that she “can never be a nurse” and for reasons like having to deal with other people’s bodily fluids and not wanting to wipe someone’s ass and that she will never do it. I don’t know how to feel about this. It seems to me that she thinks all nurses do is wipe asses (l o l). I’m going to nursing school but once I work for a year or two as a nurse I do plan on applying to medical school for MY own personal reasons. However, it just bothers me that she thinks this way. I understand some people aren’t apt to bodily fluids and really can’t handle it but I just feel like anytime I talk about the profession that’s all she has to say and it really upsets me. She wants to go to PA school but wouldn’t she have to at least experience direct patient care?
