Craziness

I love it when pt's and their families literally smell like they LIVE IN A BARN and the gals in their twenties are completely TOOTHLESS, but one of the family members complains that "this IV tube is touching the ground right here and that's SOOO unsanitary."

*walks out of room and exhales*

It's amazing how long you can hold your breath under these circumstances; even develop the ability to talk and never inhale.

I once gave a medication to a pregnant drug abuser - she glared at me and said "this better not hurt my baby". I glanced at a co-worker who heard this and we both burst out laughing (not very professional, but we couldn't help it).

Wow, she's sick.

I accidently told a patient she smelled like a cat lady. I didn't mean it that way but my friend wouldn't let me live it down.

I would like that "accidental" conversation repeated in its entirety, please.

I had a boyfriend tell me that my natural smell was similar to a cat's (he verified it didn't mean any of their bodily functions, but their fur???) so perhaps I literally do smell like a cat lady? Also, he was weird.

Just after shift change I needed to give a repeat enema to an infant. I intended to use the original set which was still hanging. The mother cried out in horror, "But that's not sterile." Before I could help myself, I pointed at the kid's butt and said, "Neither is that."

Patient came in, reminded me of my ex-mother in laws house. Almost like an ammonia smell. Ex-mother in law had an insane amount of cats and litter boxes everywhere. I was so thankful I rarely had to go there. Anyway EMS rolls patient in and I am introducing myself and I ask her if she owns a lot of cats, she stated yes and asked how I knew. I stated I could smell them. :|
