Today I had the daughter from hades, and I pretty much spent my whole report talking about the difficult daughter of the patient, instead of the patient... :rolleyes: That daughter just wasn't going to let me alone for more than 15 minutes at a time...

Sorry . . .:sofahider . .... but that would drive me crazy . . . . . :bugeyes:

We have two nurses on - we take turns giving report to the two nurses coming on. Waiting to give report while the other nurse is ranting and raving is hard.

I am so sorry about the daughter from Hades . .:icon_hug:

Yep, one of my coworkers (who was well acquainted with my difficult day, having helped me answer that call light) good humoredly complained to me, although she understood. I don't blame her.

But, at least I didn't have the drug addict, morbidly obese prostitute who was masturbating with all her covers off. :eek:

Thats just as bad as the patient I had when I first graduated from nursing school. He had west nile encephalitis. I walked into the room, thinking he was asleep, nope, he was playing with himself and when I went to leave he asked me to shut the curtain.

We truly encounter every single solitary type of human being as nurses...

Thank God I got called off today, I was afraid if I requested not to have the pt with the accusatory, demanding daughter, that I would get the masturbating drug addict (I had had her briefly last week when she came down from ICU at shift change)

The sun is shining, I think I'll go dig some worms and go fishing today.

Thank you! I deal with this all the time! I stop the nurse and say something but then I feel like I am the only one who does this. You are receiving report, what makes you think you get to interrogate me ? Shut up and LISTEN. Oh yeah, then when I think I have been extremely clear...I come back to work lets say only 2 days later and the report I get does not include the information I passed on only 2 days ago!!!!!!!!!!!! Makes me think my nurses are only hearing half of what I say.:banghead::banghead::banghead:
