What Is Your Most Gross, Yucky, Disgusting Nursing Horror Story?

Here is my most gross, yucky, disgusting nursing story! Nurses Humor Article

Updated:  

I was working a night shift on a tele floor as a new Nurse.

We had this one poor old lady who was confused and was restrained as usual for her safety. She was our designated resident nightmare geri from hell, so she was placed near the Nurse's station.

So we are chilling out at the Nurse's station, chatting and trying to get through another night...

Suddenly, out of the corner of my eye, I see our lady in question standing in the dimly lit doorway of her room!

I instantly leap out and run to her. As I approach her, she appears to be falling towards me, so I meet her in a bear hug...my arms around her waste, and her arms around my shoulders.

As I catch the lady, I notice a very strong smell of feces, and I feel something warm on my hands, arms and shoulders...

My fellow heroes come in behind me, and as the lights are turned on, my worst fears are instantly realized.

Yes, I caught the poor old lady with a good old bear hung football catch, but I was also covered in the lady's feces.

As I look at her, she has feces smeared all over her arms and hands... (and even her face!)

And of course, now so did I! :D

This is from a fellow student:

26 yr old male came in complaining of a severe earache and hearing loss that had been going on for about a week. An exam was done, and she ended up having to dig RAW ground beef out of the guy's ear canal. Ground beef! And it wasn't a small amount either. We're still trying to decide how it got there. :confused:

Well I am a nursing student and I start clinicals in two weeks and you guys have scared the crap out of me. Yikes!!

:rolleyes: :uhoh3: Me too! I am starting Phlebotomy class soon, but the stories in this thread really gross me out. I wonder if i have courage to go on? Now i undertand what nurses endure. :bluecry1: :nurse:

That is way too funny! I fell out of my chair laughing!

What is a prolapsed UTERUS? is the U still inside? How does that happen? too many childbirths?:penguin:

OK well still being a student I havent gotten to my clinical stage but being as curious as I am I tend to ask every nurse I see about their worst moment. Well this past weekend I pulled the muscles in my lower back and decided to go to the ER after not being able to move without extreme pain. So I am in triage and the nurse asked me what I was going to school for we preceeded to talk about her experience and I just had to post it. One night an elderly woman walks in complaining of severe abdom. cramps it got to the point to where the woman couldnt get up to use the restroom. So they decided to cath her. Well the woman smelled just horrible to begin with and wouldnt you know it she got the job. So she goes to prep her and a little white worm falls out. Yep its a magget. Apparently the woman had stuck a grape inside at some point in time and the maggets began to tunnel their way through her abdom. cavity! Im assuming she had some infection prior to this. I believe the woman was a little on the dementia side! (so far I havent heard a story thats grossed me out I think I am ready for it) But I dont want to speak to soon!

SO? what happens next? Did the worms do any harms to the body of thewoman? :chuckle

A nice littel old man in a wheel chair waved at one of my co-workers (a pretty littel 18 year-old, fresh out of high school sugar and spice type of girl). He said "honey come over here please" as she bent down to talk to him. He moved the blanket covering his legs and SPLAT! he ejaculated right in her face and mouth. I never saw her again and thus my nursing career beagn...........

elderly gent,confused had stripped and was leaning facing the wall legs akimbo, standing in a pool of urine.Friend rushes up and bends down behind him mopping up the floor telling him not to move while she dries the floor.there she was head below his buttocks telling him not to move , in case he slipped, when he grunted and moved his bowels on top of her head.We didn't know whether to laugh or cry .
