I am the worst person ever.

Published

I was taking care of a 98 year old man who had a Cholecystostomy tube. While draining the mans chole bag I let one rip. He looked around and said "Ugh what smells so bad?"...Yep you guessed it, I blamed it on the chole bag. I am not proud of what I did.

This just made my day.

When I worked in the hospitals, I ALWAYS went into an ostomy patient's room, someone with uncontrollable C.Diff or a similar malady to let one go. Or, if I was in a REALLY rude patient's room. Those were my favorite.

No shame in your game!

I used to work with this Filipina, and whenever I went in my vented pt's room it smelled like pewp. So I would get the bathing supplies, and gather up an aide, but whenever I checked there was nothing there. She finally admitted to me when she had to fart she went into a vented pt's room, because she heard you can't smell when you are on a vent ... but I could!

Cheers

Your integrity as a nurse is now in serious question. Patients are entitled to honest answers from their care givers. If you can't be honest about a simple GI function how can you be trusted with a bedpan. I would not want to witness a stool count with you.

I used to work with a CNA that would always wander by a certain resident's room to drop an air biscuit whenever she needed to. Totally blamed it on "Dorothy" and it was completely believable.

You might want to think twice before consigning any urine samples too.

Yes, I would be very cautious about that too.

Shoot, working with peds I ALWAYS let them take the fall. Babies and little boys are the more believable culprits. My husband has shamed me for it, but I say it's fair game.
