There is extremely little communication at all--measured in minutes per day, and then often in machine gun format: "Do this." <br /><br />I don't agree. I am a nurse who works in a military hospital and I believe our relationships with our surgeons are very collegial. We are a team. We enjoy working with them and appreciate the work they do; that respect and camaraderie is returned.

If it’s the latter, I don’t understand why that is as medical schools are presumably not subject to the same pressure as undergraduate universities to beef up administrative staff and increase expensive amenities like dorms, dining facilities, fitness centers, student unions, etc. to enhance what’s called the student life experience as opposed to academic excellence.Barry Carolnoreply@blogger.com
