What about JW nurses who are told to administer a blood transfusion per doctor's orders? Can they? Would his/her conscience prevent him/her from doing so? Could they be fired for not following doctor's orders? Could they lose their nurse's license? Any nurses/ex-JW nurses here?

An elder, Chief MD in Honolulu clinic goes door to door. Testimony given at JW convention
by AndersonsInfo inhttp://www.pressreader.com/usa/honolulu-star-advertiser/20150725/281848642300889/textview.
it sounds to me like he was a jw before he became a physician.
"kalauawa, who became a jw 31 years ago, said he had to overcome a major conflict between his religious and professional beliefs, because jws are opposed to blood transfusions.

Are JCs a Nice Form of a "Breaking Session"?
by LostGeneration inin doing some research a few years back, i came across the use of "breaking session" as something used to control cult members by leadership.
initially, i dismissed this a something smaller, more extreme cults use - and dismissed it as a technique used by the jw org.
here are a few descriptions of the process from http://changingminds.org/techniques/conversion/breaking_sessions.htm.

My boyfriend and I went a bit "too far" one time (I think his hand went up my shirt) and we both felt guilty and went to the elders. During the JC, one elder, who happened to be quite old, looked straight at me and asked if I had had an orgasm. I was so sickened by his question that I felt as if I was going to vomit. Talk about losing all your dignity.
