Nursing makes me drink

You might not want to know of the existence of this group. If your mental image of a nurse is that of an angelic care-giver in a spotlessly clean uniform, you might find yourself firmly shaken out of your illusions with the very first peek at the discussion board. You might find yourself a little unnerved to learn that over 400 people have already commented on a debate entitled 'Which branch of nursing produces the best drinkers?' and you would definitely not want to know about a thread called 'Have you nearly killed a patient?' On the other hand, it might not be such a bad thing to be occasionally reminded that nurses are as human as the rest of us. The first post in a thread entitled 'This was written by a husband of a nurse (I just had to share it!!, enjoy)' offers a particularly valid reality check.

What's good about this group: Even nurses need to let down their hair once in a while.

A word of caution: You might not want to know more about the secret lives of nurses.

Update (12 April 2024)
There are two groups that go by this name. The largest (587 members) can be found here
