Last week one of these had to be given in the ED. So many confused looks on even veteran nurses as we tried to figure out this stuff. We were told it is basically like a strong cleaner, pretty potent. So is there a great way of applying this stuff? I...

Once no matter how nice I was to this lady. She said I wiped her too much. When she clearly had Cdiff. She said I threw pills at her. When I gave her choices on what to take her pills with to make it easier to swallow and placed them in her applesauc...
VICKodin...he would yell down the hall..I want my ******* VICKodin. I've also had patients correct me when I am struggling with med words...its a 2 way street lol
Worst: Showing a brand new nurse how to suction a trach. As she quickly whips the hose back after cleaning. Mucus flies off right smack on to my forehead and upperlip...I believe I purposely tried to swallow hand sanitizer that day. Best: Very overbe...
