    I think that the governor was on point when her fired the RN nursing boards, for failing to protect patients. I was so upset, when I heard for the governor, that one California RN took some pain medication from a patient, and replaces it with normal saline. I read alot of abuse cases here in California, that includes the RN boards failure to discipline these bad RN's. I know from a fact, that some RN's are abusive, I had some friends said that they assaulted by RN's and even verbally assaulted as a CNA. I was abused too. I know some nurses eat their own, but this is taking it to far. I hope that the California RN boards don't change the RN Nclex, if they do, I know they might have alot of patient safety questions added.
