across from a patient room who has his door open due to be a little on the "odd" side. Every few hours he lifts his knee up and rips off a huge fart which reverberates nicely off the rubber mattresses.

Good times.

LOL!:D I have a new admit last night who was so obsessed with his bowels. After I gave him a MOM at his request, he started sticking his pointer finger in his butt. When an aide saw what he was doing, he says, " I'm trying to break them up so that they would come out." :D

Trying to manually disimpact himself huh? Don't you just hate it when patients are caught masturbating and say it's something else? LOL. If I was the receiving nurse, I am so not shaking his hand upon introducing myself and I'd be better off putting the pulse oximeter elsewhere.
