Nurses Humor

Published

*You always forget what it was you wanted after you get to the supply room. You always remember when you get back to the other end ...

* Doctors only ask your name when the patient isn't doing well.

* Success occurs when no one is looking, failure occurs when the boss is watching.

* As soon as you've ordered the pizzas, 25 patients show up at the ER registration desk along with three ambulances all with cardiac arrests!

* For every action, there is an equal and opposite criticism.

* Ten seconds after you have finished giving a complete bed bath and changing the bed, the patient has a giant code brown.

* If a patient needs four pills, the packet will contain three.

* Your buddies who were reading the paper at the nurses' desk a minute ago always disappear when you need help ...

* Expect to get your pay raise the same day the hospital raises the parking rates (and other charges)

* The better job you do, the more work you can expect to be handed ...

* The amount of clean linen available is inversely proportional to your immediate needs.

* The more confused and impulsive a patient is, the less chance there is for a family member or friend to sit with the patient.

* The perfect nurse for the job will apply the day after that post is filled by some semiqualified idiot. Corollary: You hear about the perfect job the day after you accept another one.

* If only one solution can be found for a problem, then it is usually a stupid solution.

* Despite an apartment littered with clothes, the dog will always sleep on the one clean uniform that you had laid out the night before.

* When the nurse on the preceeding shift has surrounded the patient with absorbant pads, the code brown will hit every sheet and miss every pad.

* Rest assured that when you are in a hurry, the nurse's notes have not been written.

* When you are starting an IV on an uncooperative patient, or dealing with a huge code brown, there is a phone call for you and it's that crabby physician that you have been paging all morning.

* Fire drills always occur on your day from hell - or at the end of a 12 hour shift when you have an important date.

* The first person in line when the clinic opens will not require urgent care. The sickest person will arrive 5 minutes before closing: "I thought I'd feel better"

As soon as you've ordered the pizzas, 25 patients show up at the ER registration desk along with three ambulances all with cardiac arrests!

As soon as you've eaten the pizzas you had delivered, 25 patients show up at the ER registration desk from that same pizza establishment with s/s of food poisoning
