Its night shift and this is where my brain is going. Just some fun at 3AM...
What are some common misconceptions and/or truths about your specialty, or that you have about other specialties?
For example, people often think in the NICU we just hold, cuddle and feed babies all day. Maybe in a level 2 unit, but many of our babies are so small, fragile or sick that we don't even touch them unless absolutely necessary. Also, I think there is a thought that NICU nurses are all sugar, spice and everything nice....when in reality NICU nurses have some of the darkest humor I've seen and are savage as hell LOL
