Questions from staff: week 2 version

"Can you look at my ear with one of those light things?" (Goes on to discuss a long-standing ear wax issue, including past clinic appointments for ear cleaning)

Upon being told that I will not get out the otoscope because I'm not allowed to diagnose or give medical advice to staff, who have excellent FREE health insurance and plenty of PTO time : "Well, can you give it to (the security guy) so he can look?" No. Call your clinic.

"Do you have a cough drop?" (Asked/interrupted while I am attending to a student). No. "Do you have any mints?" NO. "Well, how about sucking candy?"

" Can you take my blood pressure?" (I am in the middle of a med pass. Line of students, med cups and water set up in front of me). "I just want it taken because I haven't felt right since I swallowed wrong yesterday"

What the.... what??

    I think that is very rude and disrespectful. I would say, sign in or come back, please. Or would maybe follow up with an email either to specific people or if its a general problem to the whole staff in 2-3 sentences. I would set up the automatic blood pressure cuff for each staff to take their own b/p. A teacher self serves basket for otc stuff.

    I'm going to start bringing grad school papers in to school. "Can you proofread this for me?" "Can you explain if I used my commas correctly?" "I'm bad at math, can you explain the formula for my o-chem?"
