Poop in nursing

[KATRN78]

I am an RN. My niece is 18 and hoping to go to nursing school. Recently she told me that there will be no poop cleaning at her nursing school or in the hospital she plans to work in. "I am not going to be THAT kind of nurse. I won't have to change adult diapers."

I was shocked when I heard this! Why had I and all of my nursing coworkers chosen "poop" nursing schools! Where is this special poop free hospital?

Put the peppermint oil in the water in the toilet bowl before use and it seals off the surface. Works, too. You can also put a few drops in the bedpan or commode bucket.
