Nurses Tooooo!

Published

Nurses on the floor where I worked hounded a doc about a patient who looked a little too thin and had a distended tummy. He was in for rehab after fractured pubic ramus. They got a stool quiac on him that was pos.+. Attending finally ordered GI consult on guy. Patient is back on med/surg because he has bowel cancer and impending obstruction. Family stopped me in hall and said "isn't that doc so and so wonderful because he discovered that cancer". I said, "I think some of the nurses helped things along in this case". They looked at me like I had maggots crawling outa my eyes.

Great Book!! I read it years ago, way before becoming a nurse. Good info, loved it.
