Silly random nursing thoughts, one sentence, NO JUDGMENTAL FOLKS ALLOWED

[wooh]

Rule is: One sentence. Random thought. Silly is great. Funny would rock. If you're going to be judgmental, GO TO ANOTHER THREAD! FUN ONLY HERE!

Fomite is my new favorite word because it sounds like a sandwich spread.

Oops, wrong thread.

Why don't they ever yell "doctor!"?

You just need to teach them the doctor's name. It works!

Nursing school: where every answer on the test is the correct answer

but it doesn't matter because whatever one you pick is still probably wrong.

I wonder how many roads one could surface with meconium........

[emtb2rn, BSN, RN, EMT-B]

What is that smell?

[R!XTER]

Whatever happened to personal responsibility?

The only patient I remember yelling for a doctor was an elderly psych patient who was yelling for just about anyone and everyone at top volume. Somehow she got the resident's first name and was screaming "I need Dr. "Joe"! I need Dr. "Joe"!" Over and over Til we all thought we were gonna go crazy, while "dr. Joe" hid behind the partition in the nurses station.

The rest all yell "nurse!"

While driving home from work: I STILL smell C-diff....blech!

(tongue in cheek: Would it be "unhealthy and or/unsafe" to use a cavi wipe inside my nose? hmmmm.... )

My patient's poop is always green. This morning's offering made me smile, though... it's St. Patrick's Day Poop!

[nursefrances, BSN, RN]

^^^^^^ This.

All right brillohead, because of that one I almost did a spit take with my coffee.

[FranEMTnurse, CNA, LPN, EMT-I]

Physicians should tell their patients not to take antibiotics for colds.

If you get to override my nursing decisions, can I override your teaching decisions?
