I'm a nurse in a hospital, and I swear we get slammed with so many admissions and things go wrong every time there is a full moon. Now, it's a go-to excuse for why our unit is in sudden upheaval.

It does, but in what way have they patronized you? Were they verbally abusive? Dismissive? Speaking in mysterious medical jargon without clarification?

As a nurse, I interact with numerous other healthcare professionals and appreciate the importance of communication in effective delivery of care. What can other healthcare professionals, including those who are bystanders at the scene of an accident and those working in hospitals, do to make your job easier? What do they do or say that really irks you?

Sorry, I can't answer that because I don't work in labor & delivery. I'm in pediatrics, so I can probably tell you how many more unhappy babies (and parents) there seem to be on a full moon.
