I used to respect and trust people who help certain positions in certain fields because I believed them to be competent. So much for that theory.

As a nurse I can tell you the profession should regulate character and fitness assessments but they will lose their majority so… idk all I know is every nurse doesn’t care and isn’t the brightest. I could write a book! This is awful.
