This is not why I became a nurse

My first save of the day. A stuck jacket. Student zipped up his jacket and the little flaps of material into the zipper.

Took about 7 minutes, but brute force and safety pins saved the day.

You know what... it's a half day, and the day before spring break. I'm not even mad. :)

My absolute "favorite" involves the staff. When I teach BBP, I talk about reducing their exposure by letting kids who can clean their own cuts and handle their own bodily fluids to do so.

The staff that make me shake my head are those who come in with scratches from kids, put out their arms and hands, and say "can you clean me up?" I hand them a gauze and the antiseptic spray!

You are my spirit animal! lol:)
