Although this nurse meant no harm to her patient, she should have kept her beliefs to herself. Its certainly possible that the patient or her carer took exception to her attitude, simply because it isnt the "normal" thing to say. Perhaps if they knew her better, they would not see any cause for concern. Most religious people I know are simply getting on with life, not pushing their beliefs, just live & let live people.

I have a shattered pancreas, splinters & internal damage. Its not life threatening now, but I would be a bit concerned if my Doc said "I`l say a prayer for you". I think i`d be, WTF! Am I on the way out? Its just not expected for someone in the health profession to offer spiritual help.

I suspect the complaints have come from people who do not know this nurse very well. Had they known her, & her religious standing, I feel sure this would never have seen the light of day.
