The general public perceives nurses as simply caring for sick people and taking orders from doctors and having no autonomy. They make it seem like nurses just stand around waiting to take orders from doctors when most of the time we are working together as a team to care for the patient. There are even times when the doctor will ask the nurse what they think should be done for the patient.
In the past, Hollywood has portrayed this fictional image of sexy nurses in little white nurse “costumes” and heels taking care of patients, when in all reality we all know that is not true or at all functional. All of the fictional TV shows make nursing look so easy and don’t show the real everyday stress of what really goes on. They show the personal drama of nurses and doctors.
A better way to educate the public on the role of a nurse is to get out there and talk about it. Going out to schools and going out into the community will inform people of what is out there and what all nurses can do and help with. Especially since a major part of nursing is teaching.
