You know it is going to be the admission from hell when....
1) Pt arrives and hands you a 4 page typed document that lists medications on page 1, allergies on page 2, diseases on page 3, and surgeries on page 4....(and the pages were filled from top to bottom with info)
2) The family arrives en masse and they haven't bathed in a coon's age.....
3) The POA tells you that they want their 95 y/o relative who has lived the past 15 years in a nursing home to be a full code. Never mind that the patient has Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, paralyzed on one side, ejection fraction of 10%, and so on and so on....they still want everything done to "save" the patient.....
4) The patient who has had several anti-emetics in the ER is still projectile vomiting as they are rolled off the elevator.....
