Son! Wake up! Where’s the pulse ox? Your dad and I just had a breathing contest, and I need you to take my oxygen saturation stat. so we can show your father who’s boss.

Working the night shift and you didn't know you got an admission. The patient was brought up from the ED, put into the room and you thought you only had 5 pts. You were all caught up until now.

Did I get an admission?, the nurse says to herself. The day has been so busy, the nurse says to herself. "Sir, what is your name?". Okay....I am your nurse and I need for you to sign some paperwork. I will go get my computer.

Nurse comes back and the patient is sleeping.....
