An R.N. is known as Sister, that is also my designation, Sister Lindsey. Slowly this is also becoming obsolte.Similar to the term doctor here. Many prefer to be known by their Christian name.<br /><br />Jingle, I have always admired Hilary..a strong lady who shoulders much and has a wonderful heart. Thank you <br /><br />Poetikat, Yes, The Sister (R.N.) especially the teachers were very strict. But that leads a good nurse to learn respect and discipline. Thank you for visiting.
