When I was still a nursing student, we had to do this project on interviewing nurses from different fields of the nursing career. My uni has its own teaching and training hospital, so we immediately got access to a staff nurse we could interview. I was one of the interviewers... and I wasn't really listening nor paying attention to what the staff nurses' name was. I totally spaced out, then my co-host gave me the signal to end the interview... Of course, I thanked the nurse who gave her time, and when I was about to tell her name, I realized that I don't even know and remember it!!! So I frantically tried to peek at her ID, i felt relieved to see a name, and I immediately blurted out the one I read... which to my HORROR, wasn't her name, but the name of the HOSPITAL DIRECTOR!!! All I could do was apologize profusely, but I felt kinda relieved since I won't encounter her that much. I was so humiliated and was taken aback by her surprised and annoyed reaction! My groupmates wouldn't let that issue down. Days passed and they got tired of teasing me.. and I stopped worrying. Until there was this time that she was our lecturer in a certain class!! I wanted to disappear at that moment!

SERIOUSLY?!?!?! Hahahaha well this is definitely entertaining!!:chuckle If one of these charts becomes an evidence for a legal case......... I COULD only imagine!

HAHAHAHAHA. Nice!!

Wow.. and I thought my country is the only one that almost requires an IV certification and training! In my country, being over supplied with nurses, it is even so hard for us to get a slot in an IV therapy course! Well,most hospitals here require entry level nurses to licensed IV therapists, so even if they say that it is not really necessary, we definitely have to acquire ourselves with this training just so that we could get accepted... and reality is, in most hospitals, even if you are licensed IV therapy nurse, they would not allow you to perform IV insertions, unless you're stationed in the ER or ICU. Oh well.
