Even after you are official you still won't like being yelled at. Hopefully you'll work at a hospital where it's rare. I got yelled at once as a student on a clinical rotation. Both my RT instructor and the nurse jumped the doc's butt about it. The RT said, "If you're going to yell, yell at ME." The nurse said "She's not even an employee of this hospital!" At my hospital we do have a few docs we handle with kid gloves because they can bristle, BUT, my hospital has a policy in place with a review board that allows the rest of us to take it to someone higher up if we get treated unreasonably by a doctor. I think that's a great policy. In general, even if our physicians are short with us they're not too bad. LOL! Even after you are official you still won’t like being yelled at.
