T shirt idea

Published

Hey guys I work in a hospital in the pre-op / post-op (discharge not PACU) department and they are having a t shirt design contest for the unit. I want to submit an idea that's fun / funny but am hitting a wall. I have plenty of ideas for OR or PACU but not us specifically. Any ideas? Help!!

Our pre-and post-op unit is called the "Adult Day Care Unit" which sounds a bit to me like a preschool daycare setup. ? ADCU took on preoperative prep, postoperative (discharged from PACU) patients, but also manages cases from interventional radiology, overflow from ER, and any standing order patients. It's actually crazy. My friend's joke as a lifer over in that area (while I worked PACU) was "do it once, it's a favour; twice, it's your job; three times, better have a standing order for it!"

If you could give me more information on your specific duties, ALJ, I may be able to come up with some more ideas.

We prep charts for surgery - getting labs, x rays, ekgs, clearances, med lists etc. DOS we interview pt, do any remaining testing, check VS / blood sugars, do IVs, educate. For post op pretty much it's get out of bed/ dressed. DC teaching and IV removal.
