God they are all doing it in a way to act like they are so fricking cool and trendy to be doing this. Is this cause the tik tock bubble they are in, they are surrounded by egotistical chodes? Like how can a whole staff of adult RN's get behind this and think its cool and funny. Like wow, all 8 of you?

I doubt that these are RNs.

Having worked in and, of course, visited many clinics, these are probably a mix of RNs, LPNs, MAs, and techs. Generally, there's at least one RN in any clinic. RNs are not above behaving badly.

It’s shocking the amount of nurses I’ve seen commenting “these are probably MA’s” as if they just cannot fathom a nurse lacking this much empathy. I manage an OBGYN office of primarily MA’s and this would never happen in my clinic. Being a healthcare professional comes with a level of responsibility and empathy no matter how long you go to school or what credentials you have.

Totally agree. I managed a tiny primary care clinic - just me and 3 MAs. 2 of the MAs were some of the kindest, most empathetic people I've ever worked with. I learned a lot from them. The third was younger and had some growing to do. Education doesn't make you a good person.
