Monitors will now be linked to a mood ring on patients' fingers, indicating their level of satisfaction with their care. This should improve patient care, right?

On a scale of 1 to 10, can you tell me how special I've made you feel since my shift started?

Wouldn't that be something. I insist on wearing one as well. Maybe my stethoscope could have a moodometer.

Can we institute a disco ball trophy for the most "you are wicked awesome sauce" award for continued elevated mood? When you hit the button in the back "Disco Inferno" plays and there's a flash mob...
Flash mobs!! Yes!!
Yes, the post was intended to be satire...

Oh, that could be dangerous, a whole bunch of nurses with the same color after being understaffed and receiving multiple admissions each...and then being reminded by management to say to each patient, "Is there anything else you would like? I HAVE the time!"

I think the nursing staff should be issued the rings and the patients gets an index card with what the colors mean. If the ring is black-don't talk back. Yellow- if you ask nicely you might get some jello. Red-Ask another nurse instead. Brown-Get out of town...No really Get Out!!! Blue, green, and any other variation, the nurse is busy charting at the station.
