Nice. :) I had a 5 year vomit this morning all over my floor. She had hard boiled eggs for breakfast. Looked like egg salad.

UGGH! You poor thing. :nurse:

I'm sorry!! Almost had that happen to me, but I was nurse ninja :ninja: and moved before it hit me!!! Lol

Ugh sorry! I keep a go bag with a change of clothes in my car.

I like that term....I've ninja'd my way clear for many years now. But I learned the hard way that a kindergartner can flash vomit enough volume to cover my entire desk and me sitting in the splash zone.

Awesome.

Just kidding.

I've been telling teachers that 9 times out of 10, a kid who comes to me with nausea doesn't actually vomit. Most vomit happens unexpectedly (I work in a prek - grade 3 school). But I did have a child walk in with a note that said "Stomachache" one time. I had no sooner looked at it when the child vomited on my shoes.

It is really amazing how far and how fast an old lady can side jump when she sees a little face start to blanch :)

It is also amazing how far that stuff can splatter on a linoleum floor!

ugh! You poor thing!!!

UGG! yuck, I would have joined them vomiting. I can see it, clean it up all day but when it goes all over me, yep I'm right there puking with them!

Hope today is a better day for you!

well sweetheart welcome to the life of being a nursing student. Nursing school teaches you how to cope with things when you become and RN and how to handle situations. You do know that nurses encounter patients everyday who wet the bed, poop their undies, and puke their brains out. Feces and urine don't bother nurses, they clean it up :) You will encounter bodily fluids too when you are a nurse aka blood. I know the smell and sight of puke poop etc. might be nauseating but that's what nurses will face in their job. I'm sure she didn't mean to vomit all over you, it was an accident :) one time when I was at my job I ended up throwing up everywhere on the floor, I work in a nursing home and for my position I was all alone, and I actually had to clean up my own puke. it wasn't lovely but I had to do it.
