So I am sitting here...

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.

did you want to see if we could light it?

only if we want to be on the news for blowing up the place. they are big!

At least you can put "WNL" for your GI assessment without having to go in :)

Isn't our job great?

We sure do see the more "colorful" side of people.

He really is "full of it" isn't he?

LOL That is too funny!

LOL! 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."

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.

i'd get an order for a rectal tube.

Maybe he is just blowing you kisses (to use my DH's disgusting logic!)
