1. You know your a nurse when you are counting your husbands pulse while he sleeps and worrying because he is wheezing on expiration.
2. When your husband or loved one says I have a chest pain and you pull out your stephascope and bp cuff.
3. When you tell people "Gosh you have great veins"
4. When you look at a wound and say "the wound looks great" and you turn around and the caregiver is green.
5. When you get all excited because you see blood when starting an iv or drawing blood. You'd swear we just found oil on our land.
6. If someone coughs and brings up sputum in front of you, you have the desire to know what color.
7. You always check how much edema in in your mothers legs and feet when you visit your mother. And she yells stop looking at me and you haven't even said anything yet.
8. When you aren't embarrased to ask a complete stranger when was your last bowel movement. Or, do you have any difficulty with urinating.
