I work in neuro. the land of confusion. I spent my entire evening last night in an abortion clinic (according to my patient)...
Its a unique thing when a pt. that looks so intact says something so off such as: did ya know if you name your kid something less than 5 letters its free but if more than 5-you pay more taxes. Or the lady who when asked her PMH on the admission forms says: i died twice, the drs brought me back to life with toothpaste and extracted the devil from my rectum....right.....
i have only been a nurse a few months but while assisting a resident to eat the other day she looked at me and said "are you hungry? arent you going to eat?" and then proceeded to offer me some of her food.... lol
I had a patient who kept refering to me as a "he," was telling everyone wild (hyper-sexual) stories about herself and I and continued to claim I was her "boyfriend." Made for an interesting day.
Cutest LOL in for a fall from her nursing home. Definately NOT A&Ox3. I'm carrying some papers around, and stop in to check on her. LOL looks dead at me, smiles, and says "Are you my mailman? I've always wanted to **** you!" My cheeks turned red, and I swear I didn't mean to, but I laughed SO HARD right there and then. Gosh, I was totally caught off guard!
It happened today.... Patient kept insisting she was in her house and wanted to go in the kitchen. Nurse assigned to her and I tried in vain to reorient her and she wouldn't reorient. She kept calling the nurse (who is adorable) she was "Nutso" and I was "Crazy." Took all I could not to laugh right there in the room. All day long she yelled, and I mean yelled. She wouldn't even come up for air. One spree she yelled "X (Nurse's Name) I'm getting sick and tired of you not paying attention to me".
