Nurses General Nursing

I just read an Aussie poem. It goes:

You're the Gold to my Coast, the Vegemite to my toast

The sea to the sand, the beer in my hand

The thong to my foot, the Rhonda to my Ketut

The kanga to my roo, the barbie to my q

The Wi to my Fi, the sauce on my pie

The harbour to my bridge, the lamingtons in my fridge

The heat to my rash, the grog to my stash

The Holden to my Ute …

And it got me thinking... The people on AN are some of the wittiest I've ever encountered. Perhaps we can make our own Nurses poem this way!

Shall I start?

You're the black pen to my chart

The stethoscope on my heart ... who wants to continue?

You're the AB's for my infection

You're the jule to my a-fib;

And the crack to my mid-rib.

Specializes in CMSRN, hospice.

You're the test tube for my blood; the red bag for my soiled gloves.

Blood, gloves. They're *like* rhymes.

Now what about the bad version??

You're the code blue on my tea break

The student that doesn't bring cake

The necrosis in my ulceration

The spilt coffee in the nurses station

You're my tramadol for colitis

the PT for interstitial cystitis

youre the lovenox for the clots

...ibuprofen for ankle sprains

Here's to Dilaudid every 2 hours.

Here's to wiping booty & giving patients showers.

Where oh where are the PCTs!

'Cuz I'm standing in C. diff up to my knees.

What about the family members, who make you insane-y?

Be nice to them or they'll notify Press Ganey.
