I'm a new grad working in an emergency department. I've been starting to learn how to do IVs. My patient today started to get anxious about putting in an IV. I reassured her that I was just going to look at her veins first and find a really good one. The mom turns to me and says "you're an IV expert right?"
And I said "Yep."
Luckily I got it without trouble on the first stick.
On a scale of 1-10, how bad of a lie was that?
