Oh the wonderful smells

[mikejjmay]

So guys and gals, during my clinical experience there were many new and exciting smells i was exposed to (first time in my life I changed a diaper believe it or not). I did not gag, and it did not interfere with my work, but it definitely made me want to get out of the room a bit quicker, and that is not the approach i want to have. What do you all do to deal with those wonderful smells? I have heard of putting things under the nose, what do you use? essential oils? vapor rub? any unique, creative, and affordable ideas are welcome! I think it would be great to get everyones input here just to see what we all do different and the methods we share. Thanks in advance!

I'm a student in an LPN program and haven't had to deal with the clinical setting just yet but after reading this.....I can't wait:yeah: but some of the previous students told me to put some Vicks Vaporub under my nose and that would keep the smells out for the most part. You can always reapply as needed and your sinuses are free and clear all day:w00t:
