You know your pt is a jerk if:
1. they demand the catheter out so they can have sex with their girlfriend.
2. they cuss you and everyone in the room out regardless of the situation.
3. they are a no information pt because they were shot and they are mad because they aren't suppossed to be calling people to let they know where they are.
4. they want to leave so they can find the drug dealer that shot them so they can "get my gun and do him before he does me".
Woo, what a night!!!:smackingf
He also got arrested for beating up on his girlfriend about 2 years after he got "bobbed". I guess he didn't learn the first time. He would probably find a way to be a jerk pt.
And he probably WAS a jerk patient while he was in the hospital getting, ahem, reconstructed. :imbar
Thanks to allnurses for placing this thread at the bottom of the page, therefore making it easier to get bumped!
You know your patient's a jerk when:
You introduce yourself as a nurse and immediatly get met with a flurry of Gaylord Fokker referrences.
You're pt who five minutes ealier was in dire pain holds up a finger at you then points to their phone and then makes a go away motion
He tells you that he's prefer the hot nurse he saw on his way in start his IV
Give me some time, or hell just give me until I go back to work Monday night and I'm sure I can have a few more. Those are just the annoying ones off the top of my head.
he wants you to put lotion on his butt.
she wants to know all your credentials including your kindergarden teacher.
they want this that and the other, then when you get back in the room and kindly ask "is there anything else you need?" they say no and put their light on before you get to the end of the hall.
