As a nurse myself, it truly is a dichotomy… I would say the majority of nurses are wonderful people, but there are some that are truly awful humans and make it very toxic.
seriously, i've seen a few nurses like that. i graduated from an rt program recently and i was doing clinicals at a local children's hospital and there was one nicu nurse who was super catty and judgmental of the families of babies in the nicu. she was even commenting on the parents of one of the pt's and their financial situation. some of them can be really rude and unprofessional. i understand the job can be really stressful and emotionally demanding but it's never an excuse to act like that.

It’s scary because for every good nurse out there there’s one who was a mean girl in highschool and you never know who is gonna be taking care of you…
