A Nurses Pet Peeve My pet peeve is that everyone assumes that you know everything about medicine and diagnosing. I have family members come to me and tell me what is wrong with them and ask me what do I think it is? If it is something that I know about I will tell them but mostly I tell them I don't know. They say well you should know you are a nurse. I tell them that I am not a doctor I don't diagnose. A doctor diagnoses and I treat. Give medications, injections and whatever the doctor orders. The have gotten the message mostly because they don't ask me as much but every now and then they still ask. All I can tell them is Go To A Doctor. This just to inform that anyone that: Doctors Diagnose -- Nurses Treat Carol
