I am a new grad nurse and working for about 3 months now...

One of the recurring dreams I had happened twice already while I was sleeping the first one happened during my practicum while the second happened just yesterday.. in both dreams I was in the same situation responding to a code blue..

in my dream, I went to my pt room, do nursing stuff with them, then they just spontaneously coded on me somehow... called a code blue, shouted for help and I just jumped right on top of my patient doing chest compressions...

at this time, subconsciously , I could feel my own heart thumping and going tachy because of the adrenaline during the code. While lying on bed my shoulder would just start twitching while in my dream I was imagining doing compressions... after a few twitches, i would just wake up in the middle of the night sweating...

I worked in a group home in college and worked at least one night shift a week. I usually did not sleep very well the next morning because I always had roommates or went back to my parents' house.

I had a recurring dream that I'd taken one of the residents home with me "for the day" but that either my mom or a roommate was going to be taking care of them while I was asleep. I'd go in and out of consciousness and have thoughts like "I have to remember to tell my mom that ____ needs to be repositioned at 10" or "Crap! I forgot to bring the feeding pump with me!"

I dreamed a couple years ago when we sold our first house, that the lady we sold it to converted the living room and had a huge bedside commode right in the middle of the floor. It was shiny and gold and looked like a trophy.

Blessings, Michelle

When I was new and more stressed out than I am now I would dream almost everything that I was still at work. I would wake up at midnight get out of bed and freak out that I hadn't done vitals since 1900!!! And then realize and go back to sleep. I would get all concerned that I was laying in my patient's bed with my patient (eww!!) while I was sleeping, and had to wake up and look around the room to make sure I wasn't. One time I rolled over in my sleep and loudly woke up hubby with "Are you taking care of this patient too??!!" all upset that charge had assigned two nurses (not that that situation Never happens irl, but still) he woke up and says "What did you just say?" I realized immediately that I was talking in my sleep so I tried to cover it up with "Ohh... nothing, You're dreaming, go back to sleep" Which he didn't buy at all, so I had to tell him about the dream, we laughed so hard I cried!

I had a dream once where I was the patient and was mad at the nurses because they forgot to put my side rails up...in my dream I kept hollering "NURSE" but no one would come. I too had dreams where I was sleeping with my patients (nothing sexual thank goodness) but I would get mad at cover stealers etc. I would also hear call lights going off in my sleep and wake up thinking I could still hear them.

Blessings, Michelle

One I dreamed I had a third nipple and in my blouse somehow it would pop out in the middle and my patients would stare at me.

I was so embarrased that I woke up and keep holding my hand over the middle of my chest all day thinking it was real!! LOL

When I was a student, I dreamed we were all seated around a huge table in our locker room at the school, but we were all bare naked. Our instructor didn't seem to think or show that was anything strange.

yesterday I had a dream that I was planning to call in due to a migraine but couldn't seem to get my cell phone dialed to the hospital's staffing office, or the supervisor's number
