New fun thread. Please finish the sentence:

NO she/he did not:

Mine:

NO SHE DID NOT WALK INTO CLASS WITH a RED THONG CLEARLY SHOWING UNDER HER UNIFORM!:smackingf

Oh, no HE didn't....While inserting a foley on a male patient, upon meeting resistance before the bifurcation, filled the balloon with 25cc saline when it specifically was marked 15cc capacity:no::cry:...at the direction of the RN he was with! We never heard a final outcome for the pt but our instructor suspected prostate damage; we do know a urologist was called STAT. The only silver lining (if there could possibly be one) is the patient was paraplegic, sedated, and didn't feel a thing. Unfortunately, the dark cloud of a student is still in class 6 months later. :banghead:

We had just had re-training on proper foley insertion about 2 days prior and had an in-depth discussion about why you have to insert to the bifurcation on a male patient, and that urine return does not necessarily mean you have reached the bladder. He said he didn't want to argue with the RN so he just did what she said.

My dad was in the hospital for a fem-pop bypass, of course, he had a catheter. 10 months later he was back in same hospital for surgery again and said he didn't mind the surgery, but REALLY dreaded that cath. That he had NEVER had pain like he did when they d/c'd it last time. After the 2nd was d/c'd, and was not painful at all. He said " This nurse did something with a little syringe. It made it not hurt at all." After asking if the first one did not bring a syringe, we figured out the nurse who d/c'd the first one DID NOT deflate the bulb!!:eek:

Sadly, this happened to my father too. :(

I used to work in the pharmacy where I had to answer phones, If we were not busy I would say " Can I help you?" and if we were busy I would say " Could you hold please?".

Well.......

Oh no she did not answer the phone and say " Hi, Can I hold you?" To which the elderly gentlemen replied " sure, why not?"

LOL!! Elderly men crack me up sometimes. A lot of them are flirts and it's so funny to hear the things that come out of their mouths.

Oh no she didn't... tell the childbirth class (that she was teaching to expectant parents), while pointing to a diagram of a cross-section of the female reproductive system, "Right here, where you put your Tampax in, that's where the baby is going to come out." (how many people -- all married adults, mind you -- get to be 7mos pregnant without knowing where the baby's going to come out???)

Oh no she didn't... (same childbirth "instructor") tell the same class that when your water breaks, the fluid will have "a kind of musty smell to it, I call it 'Granny's Attic' smell."

(I called the hospital's education department the next day and got my fee refunded in full. You should have seen my midwife's face when I told her that the person teaching the childbirth class was telling people that amniotic fluid would normally have a "musty" smell!!! :eek: )

ask if the right answer to our test question was "because the nurse is lazy" when told to select a reason why the nurse may tell you not to bathe an elderly pt. with dry skin more than 3x/wk :rolleyes:
