Re: What Is Your Most Gross, Yucky, Disgusting Nursing Horror Story?
i am in nursing school, but working as a nurses aide for the summer. a few weeks ago i was getting ready to shower at patient w/ colon cancer. he is about 90 years old and cant control his poop at all. he has to wear 2 depends and poops ALL the time, he changes them like every 30 min! but he is in very good shape otherwise though. i had him undress mostly in a chair, then he got up and i held a towel under his butt until he got in the shower. he still had his depends on, so i squatted down to help him step out of them while he stood up out of the chair. he lost his balance a little, so without thinking, i moved my hand with the towel up to his hip to hold him up. poop, well it was more like diarrhea, poured out, and all down my shirt/bra, since i was squatting!!! i still feel disgusting thinking about it!

Eww! I'm fine with contained body fluids (and solids) but I don't want them on me! I can't imagine how you felt, but I'm squirmy just at the thought of it!

My baby brother once threw up in my eye - gross and really, really painful. But somehow less gross than a patient doing it...

I was working a night shift on a tele floor as a new Nurse.
We had this one poor old lady who was confused and was restrained as usual for her safety. She was our designated resident nightmare geri from hell, so she was placed near the Nurse's station.
So we are chilling out at the Nurse's station, chatting and trying to get through another night...
Suddenly, out of the corner of my eye, I see our lady in question standing in the dimly lit doorway of her room!
I instantly leap out and run to her. As I approach her, she appears to be falling towards me, so I meet her in a bear hug...my arms around her waste, and her arms around my shoulders.
As I catch the lady, I notice a very strong smell of feces, and I feel something warm on my hands, arms and shoulders...
My fellow heroes come in behind me, and as the lights are turned on, my worst fears are instantly realized.
Yes, I caught the poor old lady with a good old bear hung football catch, but I was also covered in the lady's feces.
As I look at her, she has feces smeared all over her arms and hands... (and even her face!)
And of course, now so did I!
