I was irate earlier, but now that I have calmed down a bit and am at home in my pjs I can rant coherently...
Patient transferred from the ICU. About 2 hours later I go to look in their belonging bags to see if the ICU nurse had any extra 4x4s they sent with them....no 4x4s, but there was a suction canister IN THEIR BAG with 700mls of yellow-brown sputum! Seriously people?! I don't even know what to say!
I'm not the type to tattle, but I will admit I marched the whole freaking canister straight to the charge nurse.
