Specializes in Critical Care & Ambulatory Primary Care.

Charge nurse: He looks a little pale. Could you type and cross that blood and see if we can get it back in him?

And oh, his face seems to have lost muscle tone. Check his cranial nerve responses please. Just be cautious of obstacles in the environment.

Keeps refusing to have the bed rails up and asking when he can leave to go back to camp. Pt walkie talkie but needs constant supervising due to trying to get into pedi ward to motivate the teens to attend his camp. Needs 1 to 1 care. Other then that, good patient.

Doctor: "How else was he supposed to open the paint cans?"

Nurse Bob: “Oh man, I hate working Halloween night in the emergency room. Not to mention it’s a full moon.”

Nurse Sally: “No worries, Bob. You’re going to get along great with this guy in room 3. He is so nice and has the best costume! I’ll give you report out here since the CNA is helping him to the bathroom still. She’s been in there a really long time.”

For the last time,Bob, I’m not going in there to start your patient’s IV. You’ve been off orientation for a month now and using a lame excuse about being afraid of your patient won’t work with me.

I told him that the night nurse taking over is named Freddy and he's been sitting like that ever since. Have a good shift Freddy!

They've made him a "No Code" multiple times but it's like no matter what happens, he just keeps coming back to life.
