I had a patient last night that we affectionately named "Mr. One More Thing." No matter what you did with him, his last words were always, "One more thing."

Mr. One more thing called me into his room for what felt like the thousandth time and asked me for Tylenol. I inquired about his pain and he told me he needed the tylenol for the PAIN IN HIS NECK......

I quietly chuckled, got him his tylenol and told him to let me know if his pain in the neck didn't get better....

It was definetly a funny moment - especially at 2am......

[aeauooo]

I took care of Mr. One More Thing's brother: Mr. No, Wait, Just A Minute.

And don't forget about his sister " I know you are busy....but " !!!

Don't forget grandma and her twin sister-"I need a pain pill honey, and while your at it, get her one too, so she won't keep me awake."

i took care of his cousin " now i have 5 little things for you to do " and it ended up to be 6 or 7 things, then i took care of his mother " oh , i forgot to ask you while you were in the room"

There Great-Auntie was in my unit last night
"dear I know your busy but...." Of course this was said with a smile and a bat of the eyes and always as I was finishing washing my hands and exiting the room.

I took care of Hey honey before you leave can I be repositioned. This patient could only whisper when I was in the room but shouted this request as I am entering another patients room.

Mr "no I don't need anything, I just need to talk to my nurse"

I enter the room, "can you get me something to drink"?

[vivibonita]

How about the mother of them all?

" NURSE!!!"

[Ms Kylee]

I had the sister tonight.... Miss "I hate to bother you for this stupid thing....."

Never mind that she needed her brief changed but she didn't want to bother me...
