Dr. Garni Tatikian is having second thoughts about her future as a family doctor because of what she calls unfair salaries. Tatikian was among the Canadian health-care workers who shared their experiences with CTVNews.ca about the problems driving some to consider leaving the profession or quit altogether.
Nurse Practitioner? Sure.
Registered Nurse? No, they don’t have the training for it. Some have picked up skills through practical experience, but that’s an exception to the rule.
EDIT just want to clarify nurses don’t have the training in diagnosis, similar to how doctors don’t have much training in care.
